MARKET DRAYTON CLAIM HODNET TROPHY - on loan!

After a narrow 4 1/2 - 3 1/2 1st leg win at home in June, sadly, on the return leg Hawkstone's mixed team could do no better than 3 - 5 to lose the trophy by a single point (7 1/2 - 8 1/2). But Captain Robin Mackness is adamant that the trophy is only on loan for the next 12 months!

52 members supported this match which was followed by a tasty meal in the Terrace Restaurant.

Many of the Canadian Greensomes format games were very close but the Captain's Team prevailed, again, by 8 - 5. Well done, Robin!

The match was first played in 1996 and in 23 efforts, the President's Team have won only once. So Vice-President, Dale, there's a challenge for you for next year!
