MALTON & Norton Golf Club duo Carol Simpson and Judy Butler have won the East Yorkshire Alliance Matchplay Trophy.

The pair battled not only their rivals but also some very inclement weather, with the first round at Hornsea being particularly bad.

Simpson and Butler won 3&2 on that occasion and in the second round edged Pike Hills rivals on the last hole.

The semi-finals at Hull saw better weather and a 3&2 victory for the Malton pair over Filey foes.

The final was against Ganton and Simpson's putting helped the Malton pair to a 4&2 victory.
