Slight delay to the match report... Captain Wayne was threatening to do next week when he's back at work... so I'll lob in a very, very abbreivated one.
After last week's mauling away at Regiate Hill in the Surrey Hills, we hosted them for the return match last Sunday.
Determined not only to win @home (which obvs is a must for any title ...

The first away match of the year, against reigning champs for the last two years!
To be honest I was hoping the title to this match report was going to start with a “Fantastic win away…”, but would have bitten your hand off for a draw, especially after our brilliant start against Farley, which seem like ...

SURREY NATIONAL v FARLEIGH – 24 March 2019
Following several years of having the same fixture list, it was decided to reverse the fixture list for 2019. There were complications with other club's diaries being booked for various in-house trophies and fixtures for the year ahead but eventually ...

A slightly frazzled and under-the-weather Jaggsy welcomed everyone today as we arrived for the Surrey Hills League Finals Day 2018 at Surrey National.
Weather was manky and just as we headed out it started to spot, then drizzle, then rain, then rain even more. First hour or so was a bit miserable but things cleared up and we all ...

It all came good in the end!
With Captain Jaggs sunning himself in Turkey, the team was left in my hands with just the five players confirmed at the start of the week.
So, the first battle was getting a team together, which went up and down like a yo-yo, right up until the Saturday morning, when Mr Feasey ...

Fantastic weekend of late summer weather and we welcomed Farleigh to Surrey National for our penultimate league match. League position is not good, we need some solid wins and results to go our way. A regular fixture to look forward is Farleigh at home (as well as the away match early in the year). We've had some close games in the past ...

Start of the bank holiday weekend and we had a mild Summer's day - barely a spot or two of rain to spoil the day but at least we finished in tshirts.
Swindle was out early today and a few of us were in the team to face Woldingham at home in the Surrey Hills League. A notably naff Surrey National breakfast later and we lined up against our ...

Been a tough league this year with Reigate Hill running away with it out in front. I think all teams have been finding it tough against them as they've put out some very low handicap/high handicap pairings. Surrey National have certainly put the effort in in every match but its really not been our year.
Woldingham have been ...

Tough going at a very, very dry Surrey Downs yesterday in the Surrey Hills League. Surrey Downs have had watering problems recently, and though the greens were rolling quite well, the fairways, tee boxes and greenside areas were bone dry and in many cases simply burnt and with cracked ground. Tee boxes were iron hard! Throw in the ...

Another fantastic hot humid day saw Surrey National travel to Reigate in the Surrey Hills League. It was our second game of 2018, and Captain Jaggsy had us all in place, pairs sorted and we faced up against a strong Reigate team who are holders of the Surrey Hills title. Their club shirts even have it printed on the sleeves!
Wayne ...
