Presidents v Captains Match

Sunday 12th April 2026

Match Report

It was a cool Sunday afternoon for our first match on the green this season which was our Presidents versus Captains annual fixture.   We had hoped that the rain would hold off long enough to allow us to play the match however, the weather was not kind to us and after playing several ends the rain got so heavy that the match had to be abandoned, as the green was becoming too wet to play.

Only a few ends were played by the four teams in the triples match, however victory was declared by the Presidents Team on the curtailed play, the score being 21 to the presidents and 19 to the captains.  We all congregated back in the club house to dry off and enjoy a drink and a raffle prize draw.

The afternoon was still enjoyable despite the weather, and we look forward to playing again on Saturday for our next match against Winslow.

Hope to see you all there!

 

 

COACHING SESSIONS

Martin Workman's Coaching Sessions on the green will commence on Monday 13th April 2026 at 6pm.  Everyone is Welcome!
