Semi Finals:
Everyone loves an early Sunday morning start after a Saturday night. Number one qualifiers Matt Lawson and Michael Richardson had a strong win in the first T.S. Cheadle Foursomes semi final over Rod Phillips and Greg Chappell 6&5. The second semi final was a tighter affair with Harry Coote and Billy Cawthorne shaking off a persistent Ian Rice and Tyron Davies 3&1 to set up a marquee match up in the final.
Qualifying:

Michael Richardson and Matt Lawson combined well in tough conditions to be the number one qualifiers with a fantastic score of 73 in tough conditions, one shot clear of Harry Coote and Billy Cawthorne on 74. The young half of the draw is counterbalanced with the slightly less younger teams making up the finalists with Ian Rice and Tyron Davies running in 3rd position and Rod Phillips and Greg Chappell qualifying in 4th.
The Anniversary Trophy was won by Tom and Richard Barnes who were the only players in the field to better their handicaps with 39 points, three shots clear of a host of pairs, Peter Corones and Tony Smith, Michael Richardson and Matt Lawson and Murray Stone and Owen Watson all on 36 points.
