At the 35th Pacific Northwest Senior Team Championships, Erik Hanson of Kirkland, Wash. and Craig Larson of Tacoma successfully defended their Men’s Senior Team title; Gudmund Lindbjerg of Port Moody, B.C. and John Gallacher of Burnaby, B.C. won the Men’s Super Senior Team; Ginny Burkey and Leilani Norman, both of Eugene, Ore., won the Women’s Senior Team title; and Mary Ryan of Renton, Wash. and Sun Douthit of Steilacoom, Wash. successfully defended their title in the Women’s Super Senior Team.

The four championships were held con the Olympic and Cascade courses at Gold Mountain Golf Club in Bremerton, Wash. and were conducted by the Pacific Northwest Golf Association (PNGA). Each was played in three successive rounds of Four-Ball, Chapman and Four-Ball formats, although the two Women’s championships were shortened to 36 holes after the second round, which was to be played in the Chapman format, was washed out earlier in the week due to heavy rain.
