Two of our best players, Bob Murray and Kevin Rubie fought out a close game with Bob Murray winning on the last hoop with a 7 to 6 score.

Planning is underway for the club’s Christmas lunch which is set for the 18th December along with the recognition of the highest scorers for each of the games during the year.
