Germany claim Hickstead Cup success

While in Italy the idea of team spirit is a foreign notion, a tightly-knit Germany outfit without a star-studded line-up triumphed at the cup at Hickstead. Knippling, Kunhner, Golasch and Meyer amassed 24 faults over two rounds compared to 63 penalty points for the Italians in one round only.
Second place for France, third for Ireland while Italy and Switzerland failed to reach the second round.
