What another fantastic week weather wise!
Some of us turned up for the Tuesday practice at Deal and rest followed Wednesday. No rounds these days are easy and our opening match was against Dulwich. Unfortunately, we had a late tee off time of 14:10, which meant a lot of hanging around itching to get going. Alas we lost 5-0, which once again doesn’t tell the whole story. Hector & Stickler lost on the 19th, Pyke & Greg W lost on the 17th and Blood & Jenks lost on the 18th. So a good effort.
The Plate, down to six players, first round Friday morning against Glenalmond. Taunton win 3-0. Second round Saturday morning against Uppingham we lost 2-1.
Team this year for the main competition was unchanged:
R Willacy & I Westwater
G Hector & P Stickler

Plate team was:
