(GC - Tournaments)
Margaret Page (Ealing) won the East Dorset C-Level (7+) on 29 June and deservedly so, winning all six of her games during the day. Conditions were challenging (fast, dry lawns and firm hoops) but she handled them well with good positional play, accurate clearances and excellent hoop-running. The win at East Dorset followed her C-Level win at Surbiton a few days earlier (23 June).
