RUTH Stockford looks poised for action before driving in as Oxford Ladies’ new captain.

Stockford, a member for over 20 years, captained the club to Oxfordshrie Bronze League victory in 2009 and second place last year.

She has already reached the quarter-finals of this year’s Oxfordshire Ladies Bronze Championship.

Stockford’s chosen charity is Respite nursing for Oxfordshire’s Sick Youngsters (ROSY).

Four new captains have also driven in at Waterstock and The Wychwood.

At Waterstock, Spencer Dawkins (men’s), Ian West (seniors), Gill Smith (ladies) and Tom Scraton (juniors) will raise funds for Cancer Research and Thames Valley Air Ambulance.

The Wychwood’s Darren Carver (men’s), Dawn Stanhope (ladies), Brian Woolford (seniors) and George Roddan (juniors) will split donations between Cancer Research UK and the Thames Valley Air Ambulance.
