Newbury Racecourse played the annual home men's match against Theale Golf Club today, which resulted in a 3 - 3 draw. The home side took a 3-0 lead but were pegged back by the away side. The weather was great again, the food was excellent and I am pleased to say all players enjoyed the day and we all look forward the return game on the 25th July at Theale.
Thanks to everyone for taking part and supporting the match in a friendly but competitive manner and the final score was great reflection of the day.
Theale Golf Club have kindly agreed to donate a trophy for the future matches, with the format being played over the two courses each year. Theale will start as trophy holders and have challenged the Racecourse to win it off them, so to speak. We go into the 2nd leg at 3-3 which gives us a chance to win it as they have challenged. The holders will only lose the trophy if it is won from them each year, so 6-6 would mean Theale keep it. We will see.
John Graham.
