The Men V Ladies tournament for the prestigious Grail trophy took place on Tuesday September 10th.

With a mis-match of numbers two lady members, Claire & Sue W, volunteered to join the men’s squad and Jack played in a triples with visitors, and possible future members, Steve and Diane.

This allowed us to play a 3 round snake with 4 teams for each side playing a total of 12 games.

Two teams, Richard & Phil and Brendan & Roy achieved a maximum 3 wins helping the Men to a narrow 7 – 5 victory over the Ladies so the men retain the Grail Trophy!

The picture shows Men’s captain Brendan being presented with the trophy by tournament director Roy.

We will be having a Men v Ladies tournament in the winter programme so the ladies will have a chance to get their revenge! Anyone can enter this mini competition as long as they fit the eligibility criteria. 

Very mixed weather – twice during games we sheltered in the Club House – it would have been a squeeze in the old shed!!

We were able to listen to Hudds Fest music as we played.

The results on the day were that 2 members had 3 wins,

Brendan & Robin with identical scores +25 – not surprising as they played together all 3 games. Richard with 2 wins +12 was 3rd.

Nigel was the only player who could catch Rita and he did not play, so Rita was the winner with a magnificent 37 points achieved over April to June.

Final Table. Winter melee starts October 6th.
