Thomas Cullis wins Honeygrove Cup
Local wins Honeygrove Cup for the first time in 6 years.
After a poor July and most of August the weather was dry, if not terribly sunny, with warmish temperatures and lawns in excellent shape – faster than usual! So the annual two day Honeygrove Cup over the Bank Holiday weekend started well, as did the bands playing in the Local and Live concert just at the bottom of the park.
The play was not quite as good as the weather and certainly not as fast as the manager hoped, so only 5 games were achieved by all players. Thomas Cullis ran away with the competition, winning all his games, with John Greenwood and Guy Hewitt runners up.
Thomas and Guy had well deserved handicap reduction, Thomas from 1.5 to 0.5!
