Saturday November 24th – Day 1 Romsey Open Tournament – 4BBB

Teams assembled in the rooms at 10.30am for an 11.00 am hit-off.  In recent years the Open has been held in early June however moving to November seemed to have brought the same cool, overcast conditions.  A steady wind blew from the south for much of the afternoon and occasional drizzle fell.  This did not deter the field who had an enjoyable round, especially after the sun came out and the drizzle cleared.  Clubs represented were; Romsey, Broadford, Maryborough, Rich River, Seymour, Gisborne & Fox Hills. Everyone enjoyed a county afternoon tea as the day’s sponsor’s, V & P Newell Electrical Contractors were thanked and presentations were made  On a day of changing conditions the results were;

Mixed Pairs; Rod/Mary Campbell (Broadford) – 37 pts

Women’s Pairs; Elaine Scanlon/Jenny Hartley (Romsey) – 38 pts

Men’s Pairs; Les Gaunt/Rob Rea (Romsey) – 42 pts
