THE DON HENRY CUP

Have just watched the most brilliant final for the Don Henry Cup. Di Goodyear against Tim Capron - it was level pegging through the last few ends and, with Tim holding shot, Di played her final wood and took out his shot wood to take the end and the match, followed by a loud cheer from the audience. This match also made history as the Don Henry Cup has never been won by a lady member, plus Di is our longest standing lady member. Tim, as Runner-Up, is the 2nd longest standing man in the club, so quite a pedigree between them.

Many congratulations to you both and thanks for such a great final.

From Kate, our onsite reporter.
