The team’s play compounded England’s recent successes in Europe as they added to the European amateur championship won at the start of this month by Alfie Plant (Sundridge Park) and the European women’s team title, won two weeks ago with Woodsome Hall’s Rochelle Morris in the side.

Sue Over, joint team manager with her husband, Nick, in Oslo said: “The team has been amazing, we are so proud of them. Today they just went out for it and it was fantastic.”
