Theale GC vs NRGC

A fine day at Theale Golf Club saw NRGC attempt to win the Theale Challenge Trophy for the first time. The score was tied at 3 - 3 from the first leg, so in fact we had a good chance.
The day started with a missing player thus leaving Roy Whiting to attempt to win on his own, and quite a few changes to the starting pairs as well as the drafting in of the first reserve Bob Stevenson. Halves were won by Dean Butler and his partner Dave Warwick as well as Jon Miller and his partner Andrew Buchanan, unfortunately we went on to lose all the remaining matches, thus losing 5 - 1, an overall defeat of 8- 4 on aggregate.
I would like to thank all the players for turning up and playing and I hope you all enjoyed the day if not the result. Interestingly the Theale captain told me they selected their team from the 12 best performing players from the medals played at Theale since April. The trophy will again be up for grabs over two legs next season, I hope we will fair better then and once again thanks to all my players for the support and the mickey taking about new hair cut.
