Sydney Pepper was declared the winner and Declan Dooher was the runner-up.

Sydney was delighted to win this trophy for a second time. Teddy Holton’s two daughters, Jane and Susan, presented the Salver to Sydney amid loud applause.

All the captains then sat down to a delicious meal and reminisced about days gone by.

It is always a most enjoyable occasion and thanks must go to Noel McSherry, the immediate past captain, for organising everything so perfectly.
