The John Griffith’s Memorial Trophy was contested at Sidmouth last Sunday, writes George Carr.
The popular event, the first of the winter competitions, attracted a good turnout.
Held in memory of the late John Griffiths, a former chairman of the club and a long-serving committee member, the event was played in a demanding three-ball team medal format.
Sunday morning found Derek Platten, Steve Crabbe and Graham Davies in fine form with a twelve-under-par 54 to claim the handsome trophy.
Close behind on 55 were the likely three-ball of Martin White, Mark Shoobridge and Steve Channing.
After an interval, Pat McCormack, Ray Gunner and Steve Milton claimed third spot with a ten-under par 56 - Well played, gentlemen all.
