Winter Fourball Knockout 25/26

It’s that time of year again — the nights are drawing in, the clocks have already gone back (no excuses for being late now!), and the Gala Ball is a fond, glittery memory! You know what that means — it’s officially Winter Pairs Knockout season!

There’s even a shiny trophy up for grabs — originally bestowed by ex-Captain James Morrison way back in 1978 — now proudly held by the dynamic duo David Frame and Ryan Longmuir.

As this is a knockout event, it’ll run all winter (or until you’re spectacularly knocked out — whichever comes first). Expect about one round a month, to be played whenever suits both pairs. So if you’re jetting off somewhere warm for an extended period (you lucky thing), maybe give this one a miss. We wouldn't want you to miss your moment of glory!

You can enter via the app right now! If you’ve already found your dream partner, let me know and I’ll team you up. If not, no problem — I’ll play Cupid and fix you up with your ideal partner. The only rule is that you can’t play with the same person as last year — unless you’re defending champions, like the legendary Frame and Longmuir.

I’ll keep the info below updated and post the official draw next week. Until then, get your name in — winter glory (and eternal bragging rights) await!

Seriously folks, we need another 3 teams! Come on, you've gotta be in it to win it!
