In the Peggy Bayer Trophy Scotland was represented by Chloe Farrell & John Russell, Adam Tobias & Wan Hew Tran, David Tobias & Aidan Woodley, npc George Plant.
Scotland started very well on Friday with a narrow win against the second England team and a big win against Wales. Scotland beat the very inexperienced second Wales team by 55 IMP on Saturday morning but were then comprehensively beaten by the favourites, England, and they did not fare any better against Ireland.
In the second round-robin, they beat the two Wales teams but lost to both England teams, before getting some measure of revenge with a good victory against Ireland in the final match.
