A truly international line-up of Icelander Tryggvi, Benny from Denmark, Claude and Mirielle from Belgium plus the odd one or two Scotsmen made up the 24 starters for El Plantio 2’s Team Yellow Ball competition. Despite conditions being benign, scoring was not particularly high and only three teams of the eight starters returned the Yellow Ball intact – the other five incurring a penalty of five points per ball lost.

Highlight of the morning was a Hole-in-One at the tricky Hole 1 for Lyn Young.

Nearest the pins, Hole 2 – John Wilby , Hole 5 – John O’Brien.

Third Place, David Swann, Mirielle Michels, Mike Davies – 108 points.

Second Place, John O’Brien, Claude De Wamme, Benny Jorgensen – 111 points.

First Place, Ken Green, Alistair Douglas, Dave Southwell – 123 points
