Last week the 2025 WMH European Championship came to a close with M55 and M60 participating in the “B” division. Mixed fortunes with the M55STs (5 debutants) gaining Bronze and M60STs (7 debutants) finding the challenge a bit tough, but 2 new teams and good memories were built 🏴
We've needed 48hrs to recover from a busy weekend! The M60s played their 2nd tie with Ireland on Sunday. ☘️ dominated the 1st half without creating any danger.🏴 grew in confidence and had a couple of near misses. Ended 0-0. A solid clean sheet to build towards the 4N in Cork.
Ireland and Scotland M60s faced off in Edinburgh yesterday, with the visitors winning 2-1 in a tight match. Donald MacFarlane was the Scot on target.
There was an Edinburgh Uni HC reunion with Donald MacFarlane, Peter Reid, Peter Fowlie, and Norman McLeod.

In Q3Mike Watts powered one in from a PC, and Gordon MacKenzie topped off a 3-1 win. Both teams play today at 11.45am.
It's not a proper Masters trial without a bit of cramp!
The M60s held their final trial yesterday at ON-X Linwood, an excellent session by Niall Sturrock.
