Duddingston’s ‘Dispatch’ display

Team members enjoyed displaying the venerable Dispatch Trophy, won on the Braid Hills this year with a final victory over Heriot’s, when Duddingston Golf Club held their annual prize giving in the clubhouse.

It was a debut win for Duddingston in the 123-year-old event and on the way through they overcame Turnhouse, Silverknowes, Hailes, Dalmahoy and Murrayfield.

For Allyn Dick it was a sixth victory having won five times previously with Carrickvale.

A serial winner at the prize giving was Match and Handicap Director Chris Yeaman, pictured, who picked up the Killey Cup (Spring B scratch event) and Ford Trophy (Spring B handicap event) as well as the Coronation gold medal for best net aggregate scores.
