A young Barnt Green golfer helped his Bromsgrove Golf Club team-mates to win this year’s Junior West Midlands Golf League, in a close-fought final against clubs from Beau Desert, Halesowen and Droitwich.

Jake Jeff-Johnston, aged eight, is the youngest member of the team, who play in the league of 14 golf clubs split over four zones – the winning clubs from each zone take part in the final.

The Bromsgrove team were then up against the winners of the North Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Staffordshire leagues for the “Champion of Champions” title, taking place at Studley Wood Golf Club in Oxfordshire. They finished runners-up by just two points in very tough wet and windy conditions, with Jake the youngest player in the field.
