Harris Cup Pictures & Reaction

Sir John Bayley vice-captain Tom Roden was delighted with their team’s first win in the competition for 71 years! “We’re over the moon to win the Harris Cup (I’m informed it’s over 70 years since SJB last won it). We started well, coming out of the front four 17 shots up, however St Georges showed their class and drew level after 7 blocks. Fortunately it was our night as we won all of the last 3 games to get us over the line. I’d like to thank St Georges for sharing a hard-fought final with us, to Bowring BC for hosting and providing a challenging green in good condition, and to all those behind the scenes making sure the competition runs smoothly.”
