On Wednesday, September 25th the Seniors visited local rivals Stoke Rochford for the penultimate match of the season. Having already won the home fixture, the Belton Park team were keen to make it a clean sweep.
The weather was pretty awful to start with, constant light rain made the greens a little slow and both teams struggled with putting. After a pre-match breakfast, the match was played in good spirits and the weather improved significantly after a few holes and there was even a bit of autumn sunshine.
The final result was a good away win for the Belton Park team by 5 games to 3.
