Wiltshire Police have brought home silverware from the Police Golf Finals.
The team impressed at Formby Golf Club in Southport, one of England’s top 20 courses, after winning the South West England regional group to reach their first finals in 20 years.
They faced off against Essex (South East winners), South Yorkshire (North East winners), and hosts Merseyside (North West winners).
A spokesman for Wiltshire Police said: "This was Wiltshire's first appearance in the finals for 20 years.
"They played Merseyside in the morning semi-final, which saw some excellent golf from both teams, but it was Merseyside who emerged victorious."
Wiltshire then faced Essex Police in the third and fourth-place play-off for the Shaw Trophy.
The spokesman said: "It was another closely contested fixture, but this time Wiltshire secured victory on aggregate score.
"It was a fantastic result and saw the team bring home some silverware for their efforts."
The final saw Merseyside defeat South Yorkshire to become the Police Sport UK Golf champions on home turf.
The Wiltshire team’s success follows a strong run in the regional group, where they topped the South West England division and earned their place in the finals.
