The members of Abbeydale Golf Club have celebrated success stories for players based at the club throughout 2026.
The club hosted its first national event over three days in June – the English Senior Women’s Stroke Play Championship – which was won by defending champion and world number one Nadene Gole from the Victoria Golf Club in Melbourne, Australia.
In August, Abbeydale-based Rebecca Hembrough captained the GB&I under-16 girls’ team against the Continent of Europe in the Junior Vagliano Trophy – which was narrowly won by Europe 9.5-8.5.
In September, Calum Davies won the Sheffield Union of Golf Clubs’ Junior Match Play Championship at Lindrick – adding his name to the trophy alongside the likes of Matt Fitzpatrick and Jack Whaley.
Finally, in October, head teaching professional Gareth Davies represented GB&I for the second time in the PGA Cup, winning three of four matches alongside Rotherham’s James Freeman as GB&I won the event at the K Club with their biggest ever points total (16.5) and lifting the trophy for the first time since 2017.
