my first competive par!

hi all,
you'll have to excuse my excitement as this probably seems like small potatoes to some of you. as i have posted elsewhere on gto about my first ever competitive round of golf yesterday but really wanted to share this with you.
i walked up to the 11th tee at heaton park manchester stroke index 5(renowned as one of the top 10 hardest par 3's in britain) you see a raised green 187yds away in between you and the green is a ravine possibly 40ft deep full of tall trees you must carry 155yds to clear trees anyway i hit a sweet 4i into a left to right wind and saw my shot land on the green only to spin back off it to finish down the slope 20ish feet away. i played a nice chip to maybe 3 inches from the hole and spent an age putting it in! my first ever competitive par and 4 points for the team i went on to score 38 points and my team won the comp by 1 point!!!
