Day 1 was very successful, with Sam Teather leading from the front with 38 points, with strong support from Rob and Thomas, who posted 35 point scores.

Walmley started the final round in fourth position and finished in fourth with 147 points. Sam again played a Captain?s 'innings' by posting a 1 under par score of 42 points. Both Thomas and Rob started their second rounds strongly, in Thomas?s case he was 2 over through 11. However, both suffered on the greens with several putts lipping out coming down the stretch, each posting scores of 32 points.

Thomas finished on a high with a birdie at the long and difficult par 5 last hole.

The champions were Preston golf club on 151 points, the same points as the second and third clubs. The trophy was won on the best score from the third player.

The result of fourth out of 32 counties is a credit to Warwickshire Golf and was enjoyed by everyone who took part.

At the British Boys, there was no good news, just France beating both our participants. Jamie Carney lost to Romain Wattel 4&3 whilst in the last but one match of the day, Tom Ibbertson lost to Gary Stal 6&4.
