Seniors build on earlier win at a windy Sheringham

After a strong start to the league this year captain Graham Sykes was looking to back this up in the match against Norfolk being hosted by Sheringham. It was a cool windy day which gave the home side some advantage.

The foursomes saw an even contest with wins for the pairings of Paul Buckle and Andy Grogan together with James O’Doherty and Phil Smailes. A half from first pair of John Blacmore and Chris Philips meant lunch was enjoyed with a 2.5 – 2.5 score line.

In the afternoon single the first three all won so well done to messrs Buckle, Blackmore and O’Doherty. A half for Steve Duffety gave Suffolk a good start. After a couple of losses there were wins for Trevor Hellyer and Smailes and with Peter Revell bring up the rear and getting a half a victory of 6.5 to 8.5 was completed.

Captain Graham Sykes said that the team came out strong against a very good Norfolk team in tough conditions and did very well to half the morning session. A great team effort gave us a very impressive away win. It was an absolutely fabulous day on a very well presented Sheringham. We now look forward to the fixture against Cambridgeshire at Stowmarket on the 9th June.
