The day was sponsored by East Anglia Utilities Ltd, Microns (P.E) Ltd, Artronics Ltd, Hambleton Herts Ltd and vice-captain Max Flintoft with over £2,250 raised for the East Anglia Children's Hospice (EACH).

Captain James Campbell, who partnered current president Carolyn Morton to the Presidents Putter the next day, said: "I was so pleased with how well the day went. The course was in great condition, but with some challenging pin positions.

"I would also like to thank all of the members for their support during my captaincy and the sponsors."

*Noel Bratt admitted it was an honour to win the Sambridge Shield at Tydd St Giles Golf Club.

The competition is held in memory of long-time members of the club, as former treasurer Terry Sambridge passed away earlier in the year and his wife Val was involved with the ladies section.

Bratt claimed the silverware with 42 points and said: "As Terry was a great friend, it was great to take part in the event and an honour to win the shield."
