GC Doubles 7th June 2025
Sixteen pairs contested the Doubles Tournament on Saturday. The weather forecast was not good but in the end the rain held off until about 4pm which allowed most of the games to be played in the dry and on the whole warm.
Because of the numbers entering the pairs had to be divided into two divisions of eight. It was recognised at the start that it was not going to be possible to complete all the seven games available but everyone made a very good effort before the weather took over.
In the end the winners of Division A were Brian Aikens and Konstantin Yudintsev with 6 wins from 6 games followed by Stephen and Debra Hayns in second place and Bob Clark and Nigel Billingham in third. Division B was won by Kathy McColgan and Diana Rolfe with 6 wins out of 6 games followed by Andrew & Fiona Fall in second place and Joanne Crosby and Nira Scutt in third.
Thanks to Andrew Stewart for managing the event.
