It was a tough day for a youthful Northland side who ran into a North Harbour side in fine form at the Mangawhai Golf Club recently.
Harbour were emphatic winners across the grades, with just the under-19 boys' and under-19 girls' teams featuring in the trophy ceremony after drawing their matches.
For the senior women, 15-year-old Soktaera Sean (Northland), playing No3 in her senior debut, stood out by halving her match.
In the senior men's team, who lost 6-4, Lee Newman (Mangawhai) scored an emphatic win. He was joined in the winners' circle by captain Lee Neumann (Northland), Sheldon Kearns (Waipu) and Kadin Neho (Whangarei).
From the masters, Denise Pilbrow (Waipu) picked up a big win at two for the women's side, who lost 3-1, while Iain Power (Northland), Peter Bone (Whangarei) and Shaun O'Shea (Sherwood Park) were winners for the men, who went down by a margin of 5-3.
