She was joined by her mother, brother, sister, her two sons and grandchildren for her year's big event.

On the par three 12th her brother Peter Wales, a low handicapper, helped to raise £120 for charity.

It came in the 'Beat the Bro' competition in which he challenged players to get closer to the pin.

For every player beating him, Peter donated £20 to the West Midlands Air Ambulance, Hawkstone Park captains' nominated charity for 2016.

Players were joined later by former members at a dinner and prize presentation at the Hawkstone Park Hotel.

Results: Gross prize Val Jones-Roberts; Division One Gina Chesters (29pts), Dale Benbow (28), Christine Apperley (27).

Division Two Sharon Jones (37), Hazel Ruscoe (29), Wendy Simpson (26); Juniors Molly Moore (29).

Nearest the pin, third hole Sharon Jones; ninth hole Val Jones-Roberts; Putting competition Sylvia Sherratt.
