West Vets half the Foursomes Match against East Vets at Turnhouse Golf Club

Turnhouse Golf Club was the venue for the East v West Foursomes Match, playing for the Friendship Trophy.
The match was played in dry but difficult windy conditions but was a course that all players enjoyed. The West were warmly welcomed by the East team and that friendship continued into the games.
It was also great to have 5 players representing the West for the first time.
