The club had a team at the CompassSport Cup heat at Fonthill on Sunday, with 37 members competing, providing enough qualifying runners to give us the full 25 counting scores. The results swayed back and forth during the competition, with BKO and DEVON fighting for 3rd place. After a ding-dong battle, BKO ahead by 37 points at 2 pm, but DEVON clawing back to lead us by just 6 points towards the close, looking like clinching it. But our final runner, Lisa Methven, running up in Women’s Open, completed a long run to bring us an excellent 90 point score. This was just enough to put BKO back in front, and at the death, it was BKO with 2261 that just pipped DEVON with 2257, a tiny 4-point margin.
A magnificent result from our team, smaller than other clubs, yet many members exceeded expectations with surprisingly good scores. The social afterwards was a happy occasion, with smiles all round. Congratulations to all our members on a fantastic team effort ! To see photos of the event please goto photos.
