The Bainbridge 2003 – It’s a Home Win!
No other club, since 1979, has provided the two finalists for the Bainbridge Shield, the oldest Warwickshire Trophy. Twenty-four years ago, for the first time it was Coventry Hearsall and for the 2003 final, between the ‘A’ and ‘B’ teams from Hearsall, the morning 18 was watched by a player from that final. There was a good gallery but with weather conditions deteriorating as the day went on, great golf was not possible.

Carl Kirby played the first two rounds with Ed Morton, as Coventry B, and the team s successes grew with each round with winning margins going up and up, to 6&5 and 6&4, when David Hayes returned from University to take Morton s place.
