It has been agreed that the 2021 inter-club knockouts will be played on a home/away basis with home advantage being decided on Friday 23rd October by a coin toss. The Secretary of the SWCGA Geoff Green is expected to conduct the coin toss and the website draws will be updated by close of play on the same day.
We will look to fix a neutral venue for the final with a set date if course availaibility and Covid-19 restrictions allow at the material time .If possible semi finals will also be played at a neutral venue (TBC) Our aim is to minimise travel whenever possible and reduce Covid risk.
Home captains/managers will be responsible for arranging each fixture with a choice/flexability of dates being availiable. Please play every round by the play by date and submit the results immediatly by email "secretary@somersetgolfunion.co.uk". Only in exceptional circumstances will a short extension to the rounds play by date be considered and if the fixture remains unplayed within any extension period the result will be decided by coin toss to be conducted by the SGU.
COVID-19 restrictions will be followed at all times and please respect the host clubs rules, restrictions and hospitality.
The dates to be played by set for each round will be enforced unleess exceptional circumstances arise to necessitate a short extension.
Winning Club - Please update the County Secretary with the result of each round played and on the day played ; secretary@somersetgolfunion.co.uk

BACK TO BACK WINS AS WELLS RETAIN THE BOWL
On Monday the 1st October a day when the weather threatened to close the Course this year’s finalists descended upon the Mendip Golf Club for a 1pm start.
Torrential rain and the threat of thunder was always in the back of the players minds and as the game got underway the rain came hammering down as the sound of thunder was heard over the hill.
Thankfully the longer the contest went on the better the weather became and by the end of the days play the sun had come out.
The course was in remarkable condition considering the recent downpours and a big thank you must go to the greens staff for its presentation.
So who would triumph in this most local of finals, would it be Wells last years winners or Farrington Park. Neither had travelled far both were determined to come out on top.
Match 1 win for Wells 2/1 was cancelled out in match 2 as Farrington Park won 1up. In match 3 the Farrington pairing of Phil Thomas and Steve Hobbs overcame their opponents 3/2. Wells bounced back to tie the scores as Nick Wilson and Bill McCoulm rounded off a fine performance 4/3. So it was left to the Wells Captain Glen Crocker and partner Mike Metcalfe to bring home the spoils as they beat Dave Harvey and Jim Lunt 3/2.
Victory for Wells 3-2 and unlike many local derby’s in sport this match was played in the true spirit of the game.
There has to be a winner and runner up so well done both clubs for making the final and good luck next year. Thank you to the members of the Mendip and all its staff for making the County Seniors Bowl final so welcome.
