The sun shone for long enough to allow us to complete the Second and Third rounds of the Inter County Foursomes. In the final four second round games, played at Newbiggin, there were wins for The Northumberland, Newbiggin, Newcastle United and Backworth.
The first day of the Inter County Foursomes, scheduled to be played at Bamburgh on Saturday 6 April, was unfortunately cancelled, luckily Warkworth Golf Club were able to provide additional times to those already booked, meaning we could get the entire first round played. Additionally we managed to get the first four second round matches played. Going forward the final
