Illness and absences still tend to limit the numbers for El Plantio 2’s planned Joker competition. This time the 12 entries meant a team competition was changed to a Pairs Joker with 6 pairings of 2 players. The standard of play varied wildly with the winners finishing a massive 38 points in front of the sixth place.

Nearest the pins:Hole 4 – Rod Loveday, Hole 6 – Alistair Douglas

Third place – Alistair Douglas, Ken Green – 64 points.

Second place – Alan Janes, Barry Walthall – 70 points

First place – Brian Coupe, Chris Linathan – 71 points..
