Oxfordshire Ladies recovered from a poor start to win their final two matches in Midlands South Region County Week at Wellingborough.

Things looked bleak after 6.5-2.5 defeats to Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and a 5.5-3.5 loss to Warwickshire.

But 5.5-3.5 victories over Worcestershire & Herefordshire and Berkshire saw Oxon finish joint fourth in their group of six.

A disastrous morning meant Oxfordshire lost all their foursomes against Bucks, but the afternoon singles went a little better.

Oxon's Tilly Holder halved with Holly Small, as did Jane Binning with Harriet Beasley and Lauren Jupp with Nicole Whitmore.

Katherine O'Connor notched their only win, beating Jess Burrows 3 & 2.

Sam Round and Holder gained a foursomes victory against Northants, while Binning thrashed Sarah Carter 6 & 5 and Annie Gowing halved with Georgina Dunn.

Oxon led 2-1 after their foursomes against Warwickshire with Round and 0'Connor (one hole) plus Holder and Jupp (8 & 6) successful.

But only Gowing gained a singles win, beating Claire Howells 3 & 2, with Holder halving against Hannah Coles.

The tide turned on the Thursday against Worcestershire & Herefordshire where O'Connor and Binning got the ball rolling with a 6 & 5 win against Sarah Nicklin and Kirsty Laws.

Jupp and Narelle Ives battled back for a half, while Gowing and Laura Watkin won by two holes.

Oxon's three singles wins, all by 4 & 3, came from Round, who beat Nicklin, Binning against Anna Rock, and O'Connor against Dana Greenslade.

Two foursomes victories set Oxon up to defeat Berkshire.

Round and Holder defeated Linda Hunt & Tracy Crew 4 & 2, while O'Connor and Binning out-classed Jess Florey and Avril Schmidt 7 & 5.

Oxon lost the first and last match of the six singles, but Binning halved against Crew.

Laura Watkins then beat Linda Hunt by two holes, Ives won by the same score against Sheree Dove and O'Connor defeated Margaret Berriman 4 & 3.
