OD was once again the top performing British club just ahead of South Yorkshireā€™s tally of 16 members. Matt Elkington M16 and Mike Hampton M65 were the clubā€™s outstanding performers gaining championship standard in 6 out of the 7 events.

Good runs this weekend by Sheila Carey W65 and Lesley Ross W45 representing England in the Veteran Home International Competition at Birsemore Scotland helped England to victory 139 points ahead of Scotlandā€™s 136.
