Champions! Scotland storm to Senior Men’s Home Internationals glory

Scotland Seniors

Scotland have been crowned Senior Men’s Home Internationals champions at Southerness yesterday once play resumed following a visit from the uninvited Storm Ali.
After losing the second day’s play due to the extreme weather conditions, a change to the original format was agreed with two sessions taking place today, which consisted of seven head-to-head battle, ensuring all three country versus country matches were played.
In the round robin format, Scotland, England & Ireland all won two out of three matches, so the title was decided on total game points scored across all three matches.
