A valiant effort from team SdM at the Interclub match yesterday at Pinheiros Altos (PA), we managed a very close second. However, we only lost three of our five games with one win and one half. The three points attained were enough to move us two positions up the league. Boavista and PA occupy the two top spots and are in a unassailable position with just a few games left ( Full details at www.Interclubalgarve.com ).

Just to emphasise the standard at PA, their star player made no less than nine birdies in the first thirteen holes, a superb display of golf. SDM have just two games left to secure a position in league one for next season. Our next game is at Vilasol on 30th September, we only have nine players registered at the moment and I will be naming the team next week. Our last League game is at Parque de Floresta on 8th October, please enter for these games on the website asap. The Interclub Finals Day is on 21 November, details on the website.

A sterling effort against a very strong PA team away from home, well done Team SdM. Every player who entered their name on the website for a Interclub game has now played at least one game, thank you for your support.
