A good turn-out of over 80 SYO members ensured that we won the qualifying round of the Compass Sport Cup match held yesterday at Sherwood Pines.  On several courses SYO filled the top three or four places, so despite missing a few of our top elites, in the end we won by over 100 points.  Well done everyone, especially course winners Dave Sprot, Jenny Johnson, Tim Tett, Peter Gorvett, Simon Bradbury and Aidan Smith!  We now get to defend the Cup in the Final, which will be held on 18th October at Fineshade in Leicestershire.  Put the date in your diary.
