Disley are the new Champions!
Battling their way through to be proud finalists were Disley and Stamford who as always lived up the the Alliance motto of ‘Friendship through Golf’ with their great bonding on and off the course during a busy day which fortunately managed to avoid most of the showery weather in the region.
Disley got off to a flying start with wins for Steve Kewley and Nick Griffiths by one-up over Keith Walker and Neil Angus.Steve Hamlet and Manchester golf legend Steve Misell made it 2-0 with a 4/2 win over Graham Dowd and Phil Spence to put Disley on the brink of victory.
Ray Timmins and Derek Simpson kept their nerve with a 3/2 win over Steve Lennon and Steve Smith to take Disley across the finishing line.
The two games left on the course were called in by the hungry Alliance President Ian Brooks with Disley's Wayne Lindsay and Mark D'Souza two up with three to play against Steve Finan and Colin Kershaw and Bill McKenna and Ian Grimsditch (Stamford) dormie three against Simon Carter and Dave Robinson.
Ian Brooks gave deserving thanks to all of their players and their club supporters for a great day of golf and to Manchester Golf Club for again hosting the final in impeccable style.
