Report on Seniors match against Matlock GCCavendish Seniors were guests of Matlock GC.Facing a very difficult course in baking sunshine (recorded as being 30 degrees whilst our match was being played) it didn’t in any way disturb the commendable way Cavendish members put their backs into this game.Some had not played Matlock before and those that had were full of praise for the Matlock team performing obviously above their station, handicaps turned out to be fairly equal all round,Senior skipper was again out first with Stuart Pearson his partner and were first back in the clubhouse with winning points to the Cavendish side, but the next three games unfortunately we’re losers, but only by the odd hole. Then fortunes changed again with the rear support winning two holes to their one.Overall Cavendish hopes of yet another surprise win were dashed as the remaining games concluded with Matlock claiming a 4 1/2 win to a 31/2.Just one hole difference saw Cavendish driving home with sad faces, and looking forward to the return match at Cavendish.
