The course was dry and “links” like with dips and banks that couldn’t be seem and the greens were very challenging; the scores for the day reflecting how “tricky” the course was found to be!
Jill Dale from Seckford was the winner of the Silver Quaich with a blistering 32 Stableford points, with Chris Kilgallen from Bramford just missing out with a score of 31 Stableford points.
The 3rd Division Team Shield was won by Bramford (Jo Brown, Marianne Hall, Chris Kilgallen) with a total of 88 Stableford points with the team from Seckford coming in 2
