The RAF Golf Association are celebrating a historic result after winning the Inter Services development title for the first time ever.

This year's tournament was held over three days at Thonock Park in Gainsborough with the Air Force picking up two wins from both of their matches.

The opening day's action was an Army v Navy clash and while the Navy managed to secure some key shots, it was the Army who ran out 11-4 winners.

The Air Force joined the competition on day two against a Navy side who knew anything but a victory ended their title hopes.

The RAF were on top form though and the 10-5 win set up a winner-take-all final day between them and the Army.

Nothing was stopping the RAF from their historic moment though as they blew past the Army to win 11.5-3.5 and take the trophy home.
