Cambridge Meridian charges through to the third round.

Saturday 3rd April Cambridge Meridian took on Orton Meadows in the seconde round of the Derek Burridge Challenge Trophy.

Cambridge Meridian got off to a flying start from Gubby Panesar and Andy Breacker, with a 7 & 6 win.

The second group off was Chris Drake partnered by Ed Sandford, playing in his first competition. They continued the winning trend with an outstanding win of 8 & 6.

Vinny Green and Tony Merrion followed and won a closely fought match by 3 & 1.

Next came Meridian Captain Steve Gedny and the young Rob Dyke, who was also making his debut. After a slow start and leaving them 3 down, they fought back to win 2 & 1.

The final pair to leave the clubhouse and take to the course were Dave Reid and Chris Mertens. They took on the challenge with force and won with a brilliant 6 & 4.

Overall an excellent triumph on the day beating a well organised and strong team from Orton Meadows.

Cambridge Meridian took the day with a 5 & 0 score.

Well done to the team who will now play the winners of the Bassingbourn v Cromwell match away from home.
