Web News - Eventful Weekend

County Match DCGCThe Club hosted the Durham v Cheshire Northern Counties match last Saturday, Durham narrowly winning in what was a closely fought contest.

The match was in the balance right up until the last 2 or 3 matches the victory all the more sweeter as Durham now have the opportunity to win the title if they defeat Yorkshire at Wetherby on the 28th August, it won’t be easy.

Comments were positive from all sides’ players, county officials and spectators all being impressed with the condition and design of the course.

The lunch arrangements were top quality with the food and service top notch. Frank Chatfield the Durham Captain congratulated the staff for making it such a success on and off the course.
