Just watched and enjoyed an old predictable Western film called "Saddle Tramp "on TCM, back when there was no health and safety or snow flake PC stuff. I vaguely remember watching it as a youngster and thinking how exciting it was.

HID had a text message from the hedgehog centre and the hoglet they found at school has survived so far and is eating well and looking like he'll be OK

Photoshoot today for the Club Magazine - proud Scratch Team Captain! We were undefeated for the 2nd year in a row. Other teams not keen to participate anymore so the league changes next year to give them a chance 
. The good news is my personal scratch match record of 100% wins remains intact and probably always will now!

Great effort especially your personal record. Changing the format smacks of sour grapes

Agreed it’s a great photo, not sure about the sour grapes, surely a willingness to change is better than the League folding.
True, but just going by the statement "other teams not keen to participate anymore" sounds like they don't like losing. If it keeps a strong competition going in one format or another then definitely, it has to be better than a league folding but I'd rather the other clubs saw it as an opportunity more than wanting to try and even the playing field another way

Maybe the other Clubs struggle to put a competitive team together, lot’s of Clubs are not awash with Ladies able to compete at scratch level.

Paul is right and this change should have been made last year but the county wimped out. Interest is waning and we had one match this year which was a walkover as they couldn't (aka wouldn't) field a single player...
It is a shame and the new format is a combined Scratch/Handicap League which I think dilutes both and achieves little. Time will tell how many clubs sign up. I think it was time to really make some radical changes and include a foursomes element but that wasn't seen as a good idea.
We'll see. I'm no longer Captain and that's fine with me as my record as Captain and Player is pretty darned good - even if I do say so myself

Its sad to read that. They can't take your record as captain away and sets the bar pretty darned high
