ENMORE Park's Hannah Grant has had to withdraw from the Somerset ladies' team for this week's South-West Counties Team Championship at Dudsbury, Bournemouth, because it clashes with the English Close Championship at Ganton.
However, Enmore has two players in the team, American university student Becky Dowell and ex-county champion Katie Walls, who now lives in Lancashire, but joined the local club to keep her Somerset connection. Formerly, she was a member at Taunton & Pickeridge.
New county champion Donna O'Connell and her Burnham & Berrow clubmate Kelly Gallier are in the side, although a third Burnham player Becky Gibbs is missing because of exam commitments at Millfield School.

The Somerset team also includes Isle of Wedmore's Fiona Beattie.
Last season, Somerset dominated South-West Week. This year, the format is different, with one tournament featuring the six west counties, Somerset, Devon, Cornwall, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Dorset.
Previously, the six counties, plus Glamorgan and Monmouthshire were divided into two groups of four, with the winners of each meeting in a play-off to decide who went through to the county championship finals.
