Anglian League preview v Leics & Rutland
The County selectors will have much to ponder this week as they pick the men’s first and second teams to face Leicestershire & Rutland in the opening round of Anglian League fixtures on Sunday, May 13th.
With the first team competing at Wellingborough GC, several golfers improved their chances of playing with good performances in a friendly against Warwickshire in late April at the same venue.
Although the side were beaten 8½-6½, in-form Callum Farr, Mikey Chambers and Michael Farr will all come into contention after impressing, while young debutante Joe Quinn marked himself down as one for the future.
Those players who just miss out on first team selection are expected to bolster the second team ranks as they play the defending champions at Cosby.
Although the Northants reserve side go into the contest on the back of a heavy friendly defeat to Warwickshire at The Henley, the quartet of Ryan Genner, Jack Binch, Owen Watts and debutante David Gottsch did their cause no harm with solid displays.
