Thanks to Matt and Pete for their long trips from Somerset!

Well done to all that played and enjoyed a great day at St Georges Hill.
The 2011 Hewitt was a close affair. We lost 4.5 / 0.5 but this didn’t reflect that 3 matches were all lost down the 18th.
The team included a new face David Higginson who will learn a lot from his first of many Hewitt’s to come. He did well and with his partner Martin Knight didn’t get much rub! He did play well with Pete Whalley in the plate on Friday to get a point.
Results vs Kings Canterbury
Knight / Higginson – lost 5/4
Hector / Pyke – lost 2 down
Jenkins / Morgan – lost 6/5
Whalley / Whalley – lost 1 down
Westwater / Willacy – halved
A disappointing result as in all tight matches we could pin point a couple of crucial bits of bad luck and how things could have been much different!
Plate
In the plate we played Wrekin and lost 2-1 in the first round. Pete Whalley and Higginson winning 2/1. Hector / Pyke lost 3/2, Willacy / Westwater lost 4/3.
Until next year.

It was a tough draw playing the army but the team gave them a good go.
Myself and Pykey played two +3 golfers which is crazy like me playing two 13 handicappers! We were 7 down through 8 but managed to save humiliation and eventually lost 6 & 5!
Pete and Jenks did very well to take their match down the last after being one up through 14 it was a great effort. Good to see Jenks get back to somewhere like we know he can!
Willacy had 15 clubs in his bag. Yes 15! The army spotted it like they would do I guess and suddenly from being all square they were 2 down. But they did well to come back and win 1 up which is lucky for Richard as otherwise he would never have heard the end of it.
