Inter-club Matches - Winning campaign assured Last Friday the team took on East Brighton at home and secured a 6 - 2 win. A significant result as it assured a winning season (matches won exceeding matches lost). A great achievement for the team to reach this goal in early July and with nine matches remaining. Top performers on the day were Alan Rengger and I who emerged 7&6 winners. In the second match of the week Cottesmore lost a desperately close match at Bletchingly on Monday 4.5 to 3.5, one that was decided by the Bletchingly pair sinking a 40 foot putt on the 18th green of the 8th match to secure a 1 up win over Steve Watson and Andrew Downs. Best performance for Cottesmore was Wes Lourens and Ron Vance with a 7&5 win. Looking on the positive side this is a relatively new fixture and this from recollection is our best result there thus far. With two thirds of the season gone Mike Hamilton leads the race for most valuable player with 38 points, Steve Watson is second with 36 points and Wes Lourens and I third on 35 points.
