Monterosso Vikings v Park Place
19th July 2020
The British Ladies Open Championship attracted 8 teams into the competition with Monterosso Vikings and Park Place making it through to the Final on Sunday afternoon on a rather overcast Ambersham 1 ground.
A fabulous well-balanced game with both teams working well with strategic play.
Lia Salvo kicked off the goal scoring putting Park Place in the lead scoring the only goal of the 1st chukka. Monterosso Vikings found their stride and came back in the 2nd securing 2 goals, Lia Salvo again popped 1 through for Park Place ending with 2 apiece.
During the 3rd Hazel Jackson for Monterroso Vikings stamped her authority on the game increasing their score to 5 to 2 by the bell.
A final winning goal in the 4th by Emma Boars secured the trophy for Monterosso Vikings, ending the match with a 6/3 win.
Best Playing Pony was awarded to Mosqueta owned and ridden by Milly Hine in the 1st and 4th chukkas.
