Midlands Minigolf Club members Gottfried & Moseley Team up again for BMGA British Doubles Championships


'Squire' Richard Gottfried will once again team up with fellow Midlands Minigolf Club (MMGC) member Kevin Moseley at the BMGA British Doubles Championships. This year the tournament is being held at the excellent 18-hole minigolf course in Stratford-upon-Avon.

The pair first combined forces on the 17th May 2009 (defeating the duo of Jam Trubridge and Peter Jones 4&2 in their debut as a team in a friendly match at Stratford-upon-Avon) and teamed up for competitive action at last season's BMGA British Doubles Championships, finishing in 9th place of 17 teams and winning the second division of play-offs.

At the 2009 BMGA British Doubles Championships the pair had the following win/loss record:
Played - 6
Won - 4
Lost - 1
Drew - 1
