" The first round of the Rink Championship was played at Greenacres at 2000 on Sun 12 Oct when Gangrels (R Peat (S), D Hope, P Galloway, D Cattanach) played against Galston 1 (J Dykes (S), M Evan, F McGinnis, M Dykes). We were allocated Sheet F as all the main hall sheets were occupied by Stewarton Heather and the ice on the back sheets was not as keen, swingy and consistent as is customary which we subsequently learnt was probably due to teething problems with the new ice plant recently installed and set to work at a cost of £140K. The first 3 ends were very much a nip and tuck affair with both sides equally matched but Galston stole a 2 on the 4th end to edge ahead and lead 4-1. They then increased their lead with consistent and better play over the next 3 ends to win 6-2. They now go on to meet Sorn in the semi-final on 17 Nov at Greenacres."
