Phil Sadler clinches Al Dana Memorial Trophy

Manama : An annual golf tournament held at the Royal Golf Club in remembrance of all the people who died in the Al Dana Dhow tragedy on 30 March 2006 has raised BD200. The money will be used by the Christian Community Cemetery Committee (CCCC) to support the upkeep of a memorial headstone in the old Christian Cemetery in Manama.

Organised by “The Royalists” golf society, cash was raised by donations from the competition’s participants.
