After two years of winning this event, the Seniors had to give three extra shots to the Ladies. Despite this extra burden, the Seniors emerged victorious, winning 6 matches and losing 4.

This means that in 2015 the Seniors will give four extra shots!

Although each individual match is keenly contested the event is primarily a social affair and is much appreciated by the participants.

The Sixsmith Salver was instigated in year 2000 by Eric Sixsmith and the long term record shows Ladies 6 wins, Seniors 7 wins and 2 halved matches.
