Our juniors have enjoyed a fantastic week of golf over half term.
Firstly, in the Midland Schools’ Championships, Derbyshire fielded a seven-strong team, five boys and two girls, three of whom were Chesterfield juniors with Charlie Burnham, Jamie Hunt and Gabby Auld all having qualified through their performances in the Derbyshire Schools Championships a month ago at Chevin.

The Midland Championships were played at a very windy Collingtree Park in Northamptonshire. Our guys stood up to the test superbly, with Charlie scoring 160 to finish 4th, and Jamie a shot behind to finish 5th, both comfortably making the top eight to qualify for the English Schools' Finals at Woodhall Spa in three weeks’ time. Gabby narrowly missed qualification, finishing joint 5th when only four girls qualify. It was really hard luck, though she may yet get into the event. All three however contributed in both rounds to help Derbyshire become the champion county for the third consecutive year.
Earlier in the holiday, Jamie, Calum Scarrott and Oliver Sinclair represented the Derbyshire Under 14s in a county match against Staffordshire. Calum and Oliver partnered each other and found themselves being watched by all their county colleagues as they were the last match out. A birdie on 17 put them one up but the opposition won the last to halve the match. It was a great debut for both of the youngsters and an occasion they will never forget. Jamie followed that up, continuing his journey as the Under 14s Captain, and leading the team in a 6-5 win against Leicestershire; Jamie winning his match 2 and 1.
On top of that our new Junior Captain, Olivia Barker-Sabido made her debut as the County girls scratch captain in a match against Nottinghamshire at Trentham Park. Olivia narrowly lost her match, her opponent holing a 20-foot putt on the last hole, but the team rallied to tie the match 2-2.
Other events saw young Calum finishing runner up in the Worksop Junior Open. Well done Calum! Finally, Golf Sixes took centre stage at the club as our youngsters hosted Matlock and Bakewell and our two teams finished 1st and 2nd.
The next few weeks see our Junior League getting into full flow with both teams involved in home and away matches.
It's been a great start to the season. Well done to all!

The Hunt household must have been on something of a high after the recent DSSA Schools’ Golf Championships.
For the first time in the event’s 47-year history a brother and sister both won major titles – and those fabulous siblings were our very own Jamie and Evie Hunt.
Jamie, aged 13, was out early in the field at Chevin Golf Club and fired a sensational gross 73. It was a score which wasn’t bettered all day, meaning Jamie, who is current Derbyshire under 14s Captain and plays off a handicap index of 3.6, won the best gross prize.
Later, in the heat of the afternoon, his sister Evie, aged 11, shot a superb nett 64 to win the overall championship. Evie is making great progress, still in primary school and playing off a handicap of 22.1.
As a result of the championships seven players will now go on to represent Derbyshire in the Midlands’ Regional Championships. As well as Jamie, fellow Chesterfield Golf Club representatives will be Charlie Burnham and Gabby Auld.
Jamie has also qualified for the National Schools’ Finals which take place at Wilmslow Golf Club.
Well played to all involved – you make your club proud.
