Meadows West
SCA v Welsh CA
Meadows West


The Scottish CA beat the Welsh CA 12-8 at the Meadows Club, Edinburgh, to regain the Celtic Shield.  Conditions were fairly difficult with very fast and dry lawns - unusual for Scotland.
The Welsh CA would like to thank the Scottish CA for the wonderful hospitality shown to them, especially Jamieson Walker for the superb meal laid on for all the players and guests at his house on the Saturday night.  The introduction of the haggis was excellent as was the haggis itself.
