OAGS - Fight for the Mellin Salver
14 July 2014
Another year has passed and the excitement of the Mellin Salver is over. Sadly, we lost against Sherborne and then Bradfield after lunch so there was no Aldenham presence at West Hill this year.We did get through one round in the Peter Burles Salver only to be beaten by Bradfield in the afternoon. Bradfield are likely to be in the Final today.Finally, Bob Coombes and Clive Simeons scored 22 stableford points (off scratch) in the Bunny Millard and only needed a few more to qualify for the semi-final.Well done everyone! We had a very good time and we shall train hard for next year.Here are the full results.The Mellin Salver11 July v Sherborne at West Hill Result: Lost ½ - 2½ Team: RD Hall & SC Lewis Lost 6&5 PJ Easby & G Green Halved I Wilson-Soppitt & JDL Yule Lost 4&3 The Mellin Plate11 July v Bradfield at West Hill Result: Lost 1 - 2 Team: RD Hall & SC Lewis Won 6&4 PJ Easby & G Green Lost 4&3 I Wilson-Soppitt & RJ Morris Lost 5&4The Peter Burles Salver10 July v Sherborne at West Hill Result: Won 1½ - ½ Team: RRWB Cooke & JJ Irwin Won 2&1 IR Eggleden & DPA Vezey Halved10 July v Bradfield at West Hill Result: Lost ½ - 1½ Team: RRWB Cooke & JJ Irwin Halved IR Eggleden & DPA Vezey Lost 5&4The Bunny Millard Salver10 July at West Hill Result: Did not qualify with 22 points Team: RJ Coombes & FC Simeons Report by Ian Eggleden
