ADANAC
vs. AC VALVES
ANNUAL
GOLF TOURNAMENT
Wednesday
17th June 2009 was the date for this years 'Adanac and AC Valves annual
Golf Challenge'. With AC Valves holding the trophy from the
previous encounter, the pressure was certainly on Adanac to
produce the goods. A late team change for Adanac saw the
introduction of new boy Steve Busby as a replacement for Neil
West, partnering seasoned pro Dale Kingfisher. AC Valves continued
with the pairing of Simon Lane and Mark Conway, which had proved
successful last year.
The first
few holes saw a cagey start from AC with Adanac taking a 3 up
advantage after 4 holes. This then increased to 4 up after the
7th. The back 9 saw a change in fortune, with AC upping their game
and taking the 10th, 11th and 12th leaving Adanac with a slender 1
hole advantage. The Adanac team seemed to be losing their nerve
but somehow managed to steady the ship and halved the 13th, 14th
and 15th. The 16th then saw Adanac increase their advantage once
again forcing a dramatic final two holes with AC requiring just a
draw to retain the trophy. Again Adanac coped well under the
pressure winning the 17th, and the trophy, by 2 up with 1 to play.
This years
challenge proved to be very close and thanks to the AC lads for a
great game followed by a great curry. Bring on next year!! |
