Senior ladies could play in "Spanish" AND
the Hacienda del Alamo Winter Festival

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
The Spanish senior women's amateur championship ends at Arcos Gardens in the Cadiz region of southern Spain on Friday, February 13 - the second day of the six-day Hacienda del Alamo Women's Winter Golf Festival up in the Murcia region in south-east Spain.
We are very keen to attract senior ladies to the Festival and I have been asking my good friend, Miguel Angel Caderot, Press Officer of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, if it would be possible for players to get from Arcos Gardens Golf Club to Hacienda Golf Resort by train on the Saturday, enabling them to play in the Costa Calida Pairs on the Sunday AND the Hacienda del Alamo Ladies Open over 36 holes on the Monday and Tuesday, February 16 and 17.
Here is his answer:

"Dear Colin:
It’s very far to go from Jerez (Cádiz) to Murcia, more or less 500 kilometres. The best way is to catch a plane from Jerez Airport to Murcia Airport. That is possible.
"By train, I am not so sure. I do not think there is a train that goes directly from Jerez to Murcia.
I think the route by rail would be Jerez to Seville to Madrid and from there to Murcia. But I will confirm this over the next day or so."
