The Peregian Springs ladies were already five points in front of their nearest rivals going into the final of the North Coast Zone Weekend Ladies Pennant Golf competition on Sunday.
The last match was played against Mt Coolum and resulted in a three-all draw, with the Mt Coolum team not conceding without a fight.
The Peregian Springs ladies ended the season on top of the leaderboard with 43 points. 2013 winners, Pacific Harbour, were second on 39 points.
Teams from 11 golf clubs in the region competed over three months. Highlights for the Peregian Springs team included a 5-0 win over Tewantin-Noosa at the start of the season, two clean sweeps against Beewah and Gympie, Sally Barnes winning all nine matches she played in, and Shania Herzog-Smith winning all but one of the 11 matches she played in. These outstanding performances secured an early lead for the Peregian Springs girls and made it very difficult for other teams to catch.
Captain Di Porter and team member Sharon Stevens both commented that “the slope system has brought all of the teams back to a level playing field”.
The girls proudly brought the trophy back to their home club after the final, sat it on the bar and celebrated in fitting style.
