A washout at Ardglass but Bobby was able to cope

Now Ardglass is a beautiful course and a pleasure to play on a good day. But when it rains and the wind blows and it is cold, it is certainly not very pleasant.

That’s the excuses out of the way, now for the scores.

Bobby Geddis was the top scorer for Banbridge with 34 points. While everyone else was struggling coming to the finish, Bobby managed to par the last four holes and that improved his scorecard to no end.

Peter Hillen gave a long soliloquy on how badly he had played when, in actual fact, he was the second best player on the Banbridge team.

He had 32 points, which, on the day, was brilliant.

The other two counting scores came from Roy Rankin (31 points) and the ever-young Sam Wilkinson (29 points).

The other four players were Brian Mulholland, Tom Fee, Sydney Pepper and John Poots. They all put an X on their cards for no publicity.

The Banbridge team total of 126 points meant a drop down the league table. Lisburn, Tandragee, Spa and Lurgan are all battling for the top spot.

The next round of the MUSA will be played at Killymoon on Tuesday the 26th of July.

2nd - Dominic McArdle (21) Nett 34.5.

3rd - Colin Kennedy (12) Nett 35.
