Annual Report Gentlemen Interclub 2013

Mens Interclub, R.C.G.Guadalmina 2013 report

The men’s Interclub competition (4BBB) has been played now for over 22 years.
 
Our 2013 season has now come to an end. We played 6½ matches in the spring and 4 in the autumn. The “½” match in the spring was Atalaya away, which was postponed from 2012 due to rain.
 
Guadalmina had a very fine season with 8 wins, 2 losses and one halved. We only lost to el Parador 4½:7½ and 5½:6½ to la Quinta. We halved with San Roque, but since we won last year, we kept 8 out of 10 possible trophies at Guadalmina.
 
We beat Aloha, Atalaya, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and los Arqueros in the spring and el Paraiso, Atalaya, Sta. Maria and Mijas in the autumn.
 
A total of 45 different players from a total of 11 nations participated, and no player has signed without being given at least one match during the season. I want to take this opportunity to thank the 45 fine players and Ignacio for a great season with good help and support to make such a successful first season for me as Captain possible. 
 
Thanks to these fine players and fine courses at Guadalmina, we remain an asked and popular Club to play for our opponent’s. All matches are played in a very good and friendly but competitive atmosphere.
 
The 2014 season is organized. We shall be playing all the same Clubs as in 2013 plus one. – Unfortunately we missed  Real Club de Golf Sotogrande in 2013 after many years of playing. This was due to the fact that they were told to cut these matches down by half. I am happy to announce that the match vs Real Club de Golf Sotogrande now is back for Guadalmina in 2014, where we play them in November.
November 26th,  2013, Lars Torp (Captain)
