Young team perform brilliantly in Senior Cowdy
New captain, Jonathan Shannon, took a relatively youthful team to Spa for the first round away leg. He couldn’t have wished for a better start.
Luke Woods won 3 and 2 and got all 4 points.
Josh Lockhart won 1 up and he got three and a half points.
William Malcolmson won 4 and 3 and he too got the maximum 4 points.

Connor Mulholland lost by one hole and he also got half a point.
Mark Crory halved his match. That was another 2 points.
Jonathan Shannon lost 3 and 2. He managed to salvage half a point.
Jonathan Burns won 2 and 1 and he got 3 points.
So, the score at the halfway stage is Banbridge 18 Spa 14.
It is hoped to play the second leg on Friday June 27.
This was a superb result for this young team. Would it be too soon to think about winning the Senior Cowdy for three years in a row?
