The winner of the Handicap Cup for Division 1 was Amanda Milton (Marlborough) with a great score of 64. Hilary Cargill (Chippenham) and Natalie Condon (Marlborough) were second and third.

The Dorothy Dykes Cup for Division 2 players was won by Ann Smith (Salisbury & South Wilts) with 93. Rosie McGrane (Tidworth) (one of the Junior Girls competing) came second, with Christine Davis (Chippenham) third.

The Taunton Handicap Cup for Division 2 was won by Rachel Moran (Marlborough) with a score of 70. Ann Smith (Salisbury & South Wilts) and Christine Davis (CHippenham) were second and third.
