The annual golf meatch between the Church of Scotland and the Church of England took place on Tuesday 9th June at Kilspindie, near Edinburgh. The result was a win for Scotland, and, although the scoreline was 14-4 this tells nothing of the day.
The morning foursomes were tied at 3-3 and the singles were keenly contested, with many games, including my own, going to the last hole.
As last year, my opponent was Tom Honey from Exeter and, as last year, the match was keenly fought and great fun to be part of. Tom’s graciousness was evident once again and it was a joy to play against him.
The result, although important, was not as important as the friendly banter and the fellowship that proceeded during the match and at the meal afterwards. A great day. Thanks to all the CofE team for making their way north and contributing massively to a fantastic event !
