The Final round of Presidents Grade Interclub was played at Avondale Golf Club on Sunday, with all teams playing at the same venue for the finale of the season. Avondale was in great order to host the event and the weather conditions fine and sunny.
At the end of the penultimate round Templeton and Coringa were both on top of the table on points with Templeton slightly ahead on games and Harewood a point behind in third.
With the top two teams playing each other in the final round, it was always going to be a tough match and so it proved with Templeton beating Coringa 5.5-2.5 to finish first on 20 points. Harewood edged past Coringa as a result of their 6-2 win over Hagley to claim second on 19 points with Coringa finishing third a further point back.
The Presidents Most Valuable Player award was also a very close affair with both Alan Ewington (Harewood) and David McClure (Bottle Lake) finishing with 10 wins for the season. Alan was awarded the MVP Trophy due to his higher winning ratio of 10 wins from 11 matches against David's 10 from 12.
