GC Doubles One-day Competition  21st February 2020

After the rains of previous days and the lawns closed due to waterlogging, one might not have placed a bet on Friday's competition taking place. Hats off then the Ben and the grounds team for making the lawns playable, and 56 players were able to take part in the GC doubles one-day competition at Southwick today, orchestrated by Roger Sutton.

There were four blocks; all the results given below.
