Last year’s knockout was, to say the least, a challenge.. 

The Doubles competition was won by John White and Phil Bullin congratulations guys

The Singles is still running With part 2 hopefully being played at Royal Winchester between Terry Wall and John Devlin. 

The Doubles Plate is yet to be decided Hopefully Steve Edwards will recover from injury to square up with Terry Wall Against Steve Anderson and Tony Ransley… 

The singles plate was conceded after Anil’s injury… hopefully Anil is fully recovered and will be able to contribute in 2021…
