              Brian Medland Fours
             ISCA played host to the Brian Medland Fours with nine teams competing for the top prize.
             The nine teams were split into groups of three with the group winners and the highest runner up
             progressing to the semi final. The first semi final was contested between a Wonford team skipped
             by John Parnell and the Colebrooke team led by Fred Oliver. Wonford took an early lead and
             led 4-0 after three ends, however Colebrooke came back and won 9-6 in the end.
                   The other semi final was contested between an Upottery Rink skipped by Pam Bartlett and
             the Christow rink skipped by Geoff Cleave. This was a very tight match throughout with both
             sides leading at one stage but Christow eventually shone through 10-9. The final was contested
             between Colebrook and Christow and Christow were able to take an early lead and led 7-2 at
             the halfway stage. Christow were able to maintain this lead and eventually won 9-6.
