February News

 

It is with great sadness that I have to report two of our former members have recently died, namely Etta Anderson and Lottie Hally -  we send our sincere condolences to their families.

The Ladies Information Sheet and Terms of Competitions have now been updated and are on the website.  

All Minutes are now online.   The the knock out competitions booking can be access by logging in online as normal.

The draft Fixtures have been reviewed and Joan will shortly be letting us have the completed version for circulation.    The Wee Course Coffee morning has been cancelled as has the Ladies Get Together – once lockdown restrictions are relaxed, the Committee will discuss when alternative dates can be organised for such get togethers.

Jacqui, our Match Secretary,  is currently confirming the dates for our friendly matches and hopefully these will go ahead this year.  Further details about these later.

I have currently 20 ladies on the Columbine Cup entry list with 3 reserves.   The draw will be done very soon once we can get together again and the team will  be  emailed to everyone thereafter.   Once again, we are uncertain if this match will proceed but I will keep you informed.

Margaret Kerr, Ladies Captain

 

 

At last, something to report

 

Our Fixtures should be available shortly.  Please remember that we have different handicap divisions i.e. Division 1 (Gold) (1 - 20.4)   Division 2 (Silver) (20.5 - 36.4) and Division 3 (Bronze) (36.5 - 54)

The Columbine Cup (Senior Gents v Ladies) is to be played on Thursday, 8^th April over both courses.    Last year, the cost for the ladies for this match was £20 payable on the day.   Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, we were unable to play this match in 2020 – we certainly hope we will manage it this year.  At present, with the Clubhouse being closed, it is not possible to put an entry sheet on the notice board so therefore if you wish to enter, would you please note to email me at margaretkerr0748@gmail.com – we need 20 ladies with two or three names as reserves.

The following are all online under Opens in the club website –

 Ladies Tri-Am to be held on Monday 21^st June on Rosemount – the cost is £60 per team of 3.

5-Day Open – This year the ladies are included.    This individual Open is to played on Lansdowne and the entry fee for a Blairgowrie  member will be £55 with a non-member paying £115 -  commencing on Sunday, 1^st August.   The first day is for practice and  Monday, 2^nd August  will be the start of the competition days.

Ladies Texas Scramble to be played on Lansdowne on Tuesday 7^th September.   Teams of 4 at a cost of £60 per team.

With the amount of snow and ice still covering the courses, I cannot see us being able to play for another couple of weeks so we will all just have to grin and bear it.    It was a very long January!!

 

Margaret Kerr, Ladies Captain.
