Festival Organiser
Two girls who have played for their native countries at girls' international level are among the latest entries for next month's Hacienda del Alamo Women's Winter Golf Festival.
Charlie Douglass, a member at Brocket Hall Golf Club, comes from Stevenage, Hertsfordshire and is 19 years old. A left-hander, she has a handicap of +0.3 and was an England Under-18 girl cap.
Charlie almost won the 2006 English girls' championship. She lost in the final at Kings Norton to Rachel Jennings who birdied the last two holes to beat Douglass by one hole.
Charlie has been a member of past English Women's Golf Association training squads. She has entered the 36-hole Murcia Ladies Open (February 12-13), the St Valentine's Day pro-am on the Saturday when she and one-handicap male amateur Anthony Hughes will be in the same amateur team.
Douglass plans to skip the Costa Calida Pairs on the Sunday - unless we can get her to change her mind! - and then come back into the fray in the closing 36-hole Hacienda del Alamo Ladies Open on Monday & Tuesday, February 16-17.
Anna Carling, pictured above by Cal Carson Golf Agency, is a member at Vale of Glamorgan Golf Club and lives at Cardiff Bay. She is also 19 years old with a handicap of 3.3. Anna, beaten at the 22nd hole of the 2007 Welsh girls championship final by Beth Davies at Southerndown, has played for Wales in the girls' home internationals and the European girls' team championships.
At the inaugural Hacienda del Alamo Women's Festival, Carling came second to Welsh compatriot Rhian Wyn Thomas in the amateur section of the Murcia Ladies Open over 36 holes.
That's the only event Anna has entered at next month's Festival.

HACIENDA DEL ALAMO GOLF RESORT
VILLA RENTAL ACCOMMODATION
John Green of Hacienda Golf Properties is the Festival's "preferred partner" for the rental of villas/accommodation at the five-star resort.
That means if you are going to the Hacienda del Alamo February Festival, you should do one of two things, or maybe both.
1 E-mail John Green at johngreen@hdagolfproperties.com or info@hdagolfproperties.com to find out what he can offer you and at what price.
2 If there are only one or two of you and you would be quite willing to share a villa with another group to bring the cost down per head, tell John your position.
