HDA Repeat Triumph over Saurines!

Captains, Andrew Haigh and Gerry Mcguigan

The HDA winning team!

By Andrew Haigh

A beautiful day awaited the 40 players who contested the 2nd leg of the annual match between HDA and Saurines. With the Sofia Sherwood trophy being out of reach for Saurines due to a massive 10 1/2 to 1/2 win by HDA in May it was agreed by both captains that if Saurines won all the games on the day they would take the trophy. With this added incentive it gave both teams something to play for. Some fantastic golf followed with at one time Saurines being up in 9 of the 10 games. The fantastic halfway house provided at the 9th gave HDA a lift to turn some of the scores around. Unfortunately not enough to win the match on the day but the score of 6 1/2 to 3 1/2 to Saurines mean that once again HDA are the trophy winners with an overall score of 14 to 7. HDA captain Andrew Haigh would like to thank all players who took part for their continued support. Also thanks to Saurines for the organisation of the halfway house and the food at the end of the game. Also thanks to Gary Sherwood for his sponsorship of the trophy and for drinks on completion.
