Frilford Heath picked up their first league silverware for five years wth a 2-1 victory over Tadmarton Heath in the final of theShaw & Co Oxfordshire Foursomes League's Knock-out Cup at Chiltern Forest on Saturday.

Peter Clements and Ollie Huggins opened Frilford’s account against Ian Manning and Joel Smith.

After losing the first two holes, the Frilford duo steadied the ship and wrapped things up on the 17th when Huggins drove the 226-yard par three hole to close out the game 3 & 1.

Frilford’s Ashley Walton and Paul Dolton were involved in a tighter affair with James Burton and Andy Laird.

This contest went to the final hole, which the Walton and Dolton halved to secure a one-hole victory.

Luke Washbourne and Fraser Penniston put Tadmarton on the scoresheet with a 3&1 triumph over Lee White and Tim Smith.

This continued an impressive run by Washbourne and 16-year-old Penniston, who have not lost a foursomes match in ten outings this year.

Frilford, who were knocked out by Tadmarton in last year's semi-final, thus gained revenge to lift the trophy for the first time since 2009.
