The team played out a hard fought halved match (3-3) with Greenmeadow from Newport, Wales, yesterday and in the true spirit of golf, the teams ended 7th equal.
The tournament was won by the Vale of Glamorgan who defeated Murrayfield 4-2 in a close match. This was the second time “Vale” had lifted the trophy – congratulations!
The week was rounded off by a gala presentation dinner where the boys and the management team were entertained by after dinner speakers including Olympic Gold Medal winner, AllanWells.
The whole squad have conducted themselves in a manner befitting the Club. Naturally, some are disappointed with the way they played and for the team not to have done better, but all of them have really enjoyed the experience.
There’s no doubt that they will all take lots of positives from the trip and be able to use these to their benefit in not only their golfing exploits, but as they move forward generally.
Finally, thank you to everyone who’s supported the team in their efforts in the tournament, from the qualifying stages through to Andalusia – the boys and everyone involved are very grateful for everything you’ve done.
Come on lads, chins up. I am sure I speak for all of our members: We are extremely proud of you. See you in Edinburgh.
Well done boys! Was a great achievement just getting to the championships and we are all so very proud of you all. Thanks to the club and staff for all they have done to make this possible for the boys. As parents Derek and I are very grateful to everyone for their contributions to help make this happen. I know Jordan has very much enjoyed it, although frustrated with his play at times but we are still very proud of him and all the team.
what a journey for the boys it will be memory that will stay with them for
years to come well done all at uphall golf club
Thanks John. Hopefully the first of many!
