Scratch team win sees them move up to 2nd

The scratch team beat Ashridge at home on Saturday by 7.5 points to 4.5 to move up to equal second in Division 3. On a blustery day at Verulam, the morning foursomes were won 3-1 as Ashridge struggled with the firm, fast conditions. The afternoon singles were more evenly matched, but we picked up the points needed to win comfortably. Congratulations in particular go to James Surridge, Tommy Ashton, Louis Matamala and Paul Senior, all of whom won maximum points, and to David Dobinson who was unbeaten with a win and a half.

Next weekend sees the visit of Knebworth, with whom we currently share second place in the division, and a chance to close the gap on league leaders Porters Park.
