match was against Ampleforth on Saturday morning. Our 5th pair in the deciding match won on the 21st after some knee trembling 3 foot putts to keep the match alive. At the 21st Angus Chilvers had to play our second shot off the sea wall – still managing a par 5 after Ampleforth suffered poor luck when their second shot came to rest under a divot. The team performed very well and despite the disappointment of defeat in the final
were in good spirits. The current Radley team have some real talent. We are looking forward to being able to welcome one or two of them to the team. We are always looking for low single figure handicap golfers to come and join the Halford Hewitt team. Whatever golfing level you are at please register at www.orgs.org.uk.

Non playing Captain: Richard Palmer (1956) Selector: Christopher Ball (1958) Radley were narrowly beaten by Tonbridge (3-2) in the final of the Halford Hewitt at Royal Cinque Ports at the beginning of April. In the earlier rounds we beat Highgate, Cheltenham, Ampleforth, Eton (holders), and Shrewsbury on our way to the final. Hugh Mackeown (74) flew from Ireland to join the team – again. Hugh first played in 1974 having been spotted by Richard Palmer (Hon. Sec.) as an Irish International. At the other end of the scale, Tom Beasley (son of John, master at Radley) at St Andrews University, flew down on Friday night after the completion of his tournament there. Our closest
