Overview
The DevonGolf first and second teams have been combined in 2022 into one elite county squad. Those selected are invited to attend a programme of county training events. This program consists of coaching, personal development and practice matches which are organised throughout the year by the Team Manager, with a particular focus on selecting a squad of 10 players to represent Devon Women in the England Golf South West Inter-Counties' Championship.

The South West Inter-Counties' Championship is held annually during the first week in July and is the most important event for the DevonGolf Women's' First Team. The counties in the South West Division comprise of Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Wiltshire, Somerset and Gloucestershire. The six counties compete against each other in a format that was changed by England Golf in 2021. The new format consists of two foursomes matches followed by three singles matches against each county. The change means that players are selected to play either singles or foursomes in any one match against a given county. It is a challenging and exciting three days of intense competition, with some great camaraderie. The winning team then qualify for the England Golf County Finals where they compete for the prestigious title of National County Champions of England.
A team player who has played for the first team against other South West counties ten times will be awarded County Colours. This no was amended March 2022 by all 6 South West counties due to a reduction in South West Inter-Counties' match opportunities.
The selection criteria for the Devon team is based upon all round performance - in particular county matches, the County Championships, regional and national events as well as handicaps. Players are encouraged to play in the DevonGolf County Championships for which prestigious trophies such as The Championship Bowl and The Lloyd-Williams Salver are to be won.
Second team matches continue to be played and the Assistant Manager is in charge of managing the second team and helping the Elite Manager throughout the year. There are currently two pools of three counties. After a round robin set of matches, the winning team play the winners of the other pool in the South West County Finals. This final is organised by the two County Managers who have reached the final.
Spectators are welcome to come and support any of the county matches and especially at the South West Inter-Counties' Championship when a sea of navy and pale blue is a welcome sight for the women. In all honesty, such support really does make a difference and helps focus the women and girls on beating the very best players in the South West of England.
