In second place 3 shots behind and including an 8, was Paul Grand. Doreen Dolby was the first placed lady, with a net 71 and taking 3rd place. Results…

Rickmansworth – Away Leg
Result: 3-3
Overall result: 7-5 win
for the first time in Seven Year’s our Men’s Team returned from Rickmansworth with the “Tricky Ricky” Cup. This is an annual match with both an away and home leg, which our boys won 7-5 !
An outstanding effort by some quality golfers in both fixtures! At one stage in the match the Rickmansworth Captain commented that he thought we had forgotten what the cup looked like! As you can imagine this was all the inspiration our Men’s Team needed 🙂 . Awesome Guys !
