Following both the A & B team’s success on Sunday 3rd April, both went through to the Quarter Finals which were played on Sunday 10th April at Tehidy.
The B team players were as follows:-
Mark Ferguson-Smith and Aiden Reek
Simon Bertho and Adrian Couzens
Brian Osborne and Dave Johnson
They had a very tough draw against Tehidy Park who had home advantage and unfortunately, our team lost 2 – 1, but with both of the losses going to extra holes, the team were excellent and were so close to winning!
The A team players were as follows:-
Chris Bailey and George Hyde-Linaker
Dan Olver and Shaun Harvey
Matt Lock and Matt Chadwick
The team played Perranporth Golf Club in the morning and won 2 – 1 which is another great result and gets some revenge for the CTC loss to Perranporth last winter!
Due to this win, the team went through to the semi-finals in the afternoon and played against one of the strongest sides in the county, St Enodoc Golf Club, and unfortunately lost 3 – 0.
I would like to thank all the players in the A and B teams for their support and for representing St Austell Golf Club. Although we didn’t get through to the finals you should all be very proud of what was a great achievement for our Club.
I would also like to thank your families for letting you take 2 Sundays off to play for the Club as I know family commitments are very important.
Finally, I would like to say thank you to everyone who came down to support the teams, and a special thank you to Simon Woolnough who came and supported the teams all day on both weekends, it was greatly appreciated by myself and the team members who commented on it.

Club Captain
