FRIENDLY MATCH v PITLOCHRY - 19th August

We visited Pitlochry on Monday for our penultimate match of the season which was played in a greensomes format as our hosts advised that the course was playing very long with some considerable carries coupled with punishing long grass.  They were absolutely correct, especially when the light drizzle turned to heavy rain, making the undulating greens even more challenging.  Despite a very strong fight back by Heather and Anne we were defeated by the home team in all 4 matches.

We were able to take in some marvellous views before enjoying a two course meal with delicious home made mini desserts in the lovely clubhouse afterwards.

Many thanks to our team, Sue Waddell, Anne Walker, Heather Dawson, Linda Rice, Eileen Brown, Margaret Johnstone and Pauline Hill for accompanying myself as team captain.


    



We are celebrating 100 years of Ladies gaining equal status this week so I thought it was fitting to show the historic photograph displayed in the clubhouse during the Pitlochry ladies centenary celebrations.
