EAST VS WEST SINGLES MATCH

The annual East vs West Vets Match was hosted by the East Vets at Longniddry Golf Club on Wednesday 12^th June.  Although there was rain for travel to the course (and traffic delays for some travelling from the West), the clouds lifted before the first of the singles matches teed off and the sun came out for the back nine.

Each side was represented by a mix of players who had played for the Elise Duncan Trophy before (in some cases on numerous occasions!!), and newcomers (or rookies!). Part of the tradition of this annual match is the social aspect and the opportunity to renew acquaintance with opponents of earlier matches. This tradition was continued at Longniddry and both teams enjoyed the post match meal and sharing of golfing stories: all in all a very enjoyable day. However, the West Vets travelled home the happier, after a successful defence of the Trophy.
