Isette Pearson was born in 1861 and was the mother of Surrey Ladies Golf Club and L.G.U.
She moved with her family to Putney in 1879. She joined Barnes Golf Club thus beginning her association with Surrey Golf. She moved to Wimbledon Golf Club and under her influence, the L.G.U. was established in May 1893. Isette Pearson was President of Surrey Ladies Golf Club from 1900-1912.
Miss Pearson was a confirmed spinster, but she set the rumour mongers gossiping in the roaring twenties by marrying twice when she was well into her fifties.
It was proposed that Surrey should hold a Championship played over two days to determine Surrey’s Premier Golfer, Miss Pearson donated a trophy for this event, the Pearson Challenge Cup, but Isette Pearson did not agree with the proposed format. Some felt it should be a scratch event and others thought it would be a handicap event, it was made clear by Miss Pearson that she thought the cup should accommodate all golfers.
She suggested that five or seven players played for The Pearson Challenge Cup, from each club affiliated to Surrey played against each other in league competition. A format was worked out and by 1910 Middlesex, Hertfordshire and Kent were included.
The rules were tweaked over the years and the format became a team of seven players of handicaps between 15 – 32 from each club playing home and away. The Pearson Trophy was born.
In 2007/8 the format was changed to handicaps 13-32 and matches played off full handicap difference.

Winter Training
After the playing season has ended, players have the opportunity to be selected for Women’s Winter Training. Potential Women’s 1st Team players will combine with potential Women’s 2nd team players and they will all benefit from ‘away days’ together during the winter and other experiences that the County will provide. As well as providing a fun social atmosphere, this gives the Team Managers the opportunity to monitor all potential players and see who is performing well and improving before a decision is made about which players should go into the 1st and 2nd Team Squad in spring. The criteria for selection for Winter Training are:
- The player must have their Home Club in Middlesex
- The player’s WAGR Ranking
- The player’s performances in National events (English Women’s Amateur Championship, etc.)
- The player’s performances in County events (Women’s County Championship, etc)
- Typically, a Handicap Index of 9.4 or better
A more detailed Selection Criteria Document can be viewed HERE.
The overall aim of Winter Training is to improve upon the already considerable abilities of the high-performance players and assist them towards excelling in national amateur golf while representing Middlesex. Players who are selected will be invited to join the squad in late 2020. They will be provided with a schedule of events for the next 12 months, a Welcome Pack and some information about what will be expected of them.
Summer Squad & Inter-County Golf
A squad of 10-12 players that will make up the Women’s 1st Team will be selected after Winter Training has finished and before the playing season begins. Generally, the criteria for selection are:
Players’ commitment to and performance in tournaments, in particular, the Women’s County Championship
Players’ commitment to and performance in Winter Training
Players’ commitment to and performance in County matches
Additionally, at the manager’s discretion, a player may be considered for selection to the squad if they possess the following abilities:
- A single-figure handicap golfer who is performing and playing to their handicap or near to it.
- A player who has a Handicap Index of 9, 10, and even 11 handicap but who are improving and on the way down in their handicap.
- Juniors who are improving and have potential.
Teams that play matches and County Week will be selected on the basis of Manager’s knowledge of who the strongest players available are for the event.
Usually, two friendly practice matches are arranged earlier in the season to prepare for County Week.
County Week
The most important event for the Middlesex Women’s 1st team is what is traditionally called ‘County Week’, however in 2020, this event changed to a four-day event., and in 2021, for the first time, County Week was played from Sunday to Wednesday, with Sunday being the practice day.
The format of the event is 3 x singles & 2 x foursome matches in each session. Each County has four sessions to play and a rest session will be allocated to each County. The event is usually played mid-end of June each year.
Scoring
One Game Point shall be scored for each individual win or walkover whether in foursomes or singles. Individual games all square after 18 holes shall score half a Game Point.
Each county shall score two Match Points for a win and one Match Point for a match halved with another county.
The winning county shall be the county with the highest number of “Match Points‟. In the event of a tie on “Match Points‟, the result will be determined by the total “Game Points‟ won. If still tied, the result will be determined by the result of the match between the tied counties. If still tied, the results of individual matches between the two counties will be used in the following order until one county is ahead: 1st singles match; 2nd singles match; 3rd singles match; 1st foursomes match; 2nd foursomes match. Should there still not be a clear winner the result shall be decided by lot.
Monday to Wednesday, 26-28th June 2023 at Sundridge Park GC, Kent
You can see the Brochure for County Week HERE and LIVE SCORING HERE.
3 x singles + 2 x foursomes over 3 days: Monday – Wednesday
Womens History
Although Middlesex is now a merged county, up until 2018 the Women’s section was run separately. There are some beautiful old files at County HQ that we have decided to put up online – to give everyone the opportunity to enjoy some of the County’s history.
