Seniors v the Juniors, October 25, 2022

 



The Seniors meet some formidable opponents during the year, but rarely are they faced with such stiff opposition as John O’Gaunt’s very own juniors. Today was no exception.

A total  of five matches were played in good spirits on a fine October Tuesday. Conditions were very pleasant with the JOG Course looking as good as usual. The autumn leaves were giving most matches a bit of a problem but the greens staff were busy out there clearing them away.

Sue Lee welcomed everyone and thanked them for participating with a friendly smile on their faces, even if the Seniors were quietly grimacing to themselves!

The trophy, which has been played for since 1982, was won very convincingly by the Juniors, some of them a joy to watch. One of those Juniors was only 8 years old and what a game he had, remember the name, Albert Watts!

The Seniors Captain, Algy Grimes, announced the result as a whitewash defeat for the Seniors and presented the trophy to the Juniors  Vice Captain, Nathan Church.
