18 pairs competed today in an American Greensomes competition - probably a disappointing turnout but surely affected by the 2 big Essex competitions this week.

Great confusion as to the rules, confusion that continues some 3 days after the competition. This will be resolved ahead of a possible rerunning of the competition in 12 months time.

Congrats this week to the pairing of Pete Hele & Dick Lumsden who could do nothing wrong in accumulating a magnificent score of 46 points, 3 ahead of their nearest challengers.

After our Captain’s comments in the latest newsletter how pleasing it was to see most players delaying their departure to congratulate the winners.
