Les Mielles ladies 35th Anniversary
Les Mielles Ladies Golf Club is proud to announce the celebration of its 35th anniversary with a special Texas Scramble Tournament that took place on Friday 11 October at Les Mielles Golf & Country Club. This milestone event brought together members, both past and present, to celebrate the club’s rich history, achievements, and the spirit of camaraderie that has made it a cornerstone of women’s golf in Jersey.
Founded in 1989, Les Mielles Ladies Golf Club has had passionate golfers whose main objective is to promote and support women’s participation in the sport and to provide a vibrant and supportive environment for women of all ages and abilities to enjoy golf.
The Texas Scramble format, known for its focus on teamwork and fun, is the perfect way to have marked this special occasion. Teams of four competed, and the relaxed format allowed players of all skill levels to contribute to their team’s success, ensuring that everyone had an enjoyable experience on the course.
Following the tournament, a celebratory dinner was held in the evening at the clubhouse where seven founder members were in attendance with two still playing competitive golf at the ripe old age of 92 and 86 respectively!!
Everyone had the chance to reminisce about the club’s history and achievements over the past 35 years.
Les Mielles Ladies Captain, Tracey Bougourd, shared her excitement about the event:
"This 35th anniversary is not just about looking back, but also about looking forward. We are so proud of the community we have built and grateful to the women who started it all. This Texas Scramble was a chance to celebrate together and continue the tradition of friendship and support that has always been at the heart of our club."
Les Mielles Ladies Golf Club continues to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment for women’s golf, and this anniversary event will be a fitting tribute to the club’s legacy and its bright future.
