Spalding Trophy 2023
20 August 2023, Knightswood
Despite a rather uncertain weather forecast the Spalding Alternate Stroke, Advanced play competition enjoyed a warm and sunny day throughout. On the Saturday night before the competition the manager had six pairs evenly matched using a combination of high and low handicaps. Unfortunately with a late withdrawal there was a need to improvise with the competition rules. It was decided that one player (Rosemary Saunders Robertson) would compete as a single player but would need to peel one of her own balls in each of her games (she managed it in 2 out of 3). This rule was extended to round 3 for Roger Binks.
