Six Blairgowrie ladies travelled to Crieff on Thursday, 17th July, playing in a Greensomes format. From the outset some ladies had the brollies up, not for the rain but to get some shade from the bright sun. By the time the match commenced it was quite clammy with little/no wind. It was almost a relief at times to see the ball run off the fairway into the trees to get some shelter! The course was in good condition, thank you to the Greenkeeping team. The sloping fairways caught some golfers out and so too did the subtle slopes next to the holes on the greens.
Although the Blairgowrie team put up a brave challenge with 2 matches going to the 18th, it was not good enough to match the Crieff ladies who were victorious in 2 matches and shared one, making the overall result 21/2 to 1/2. Congratulations to them.
As Crieff has a new policy of no catering after matches, we enjoyed a drink and a blether with our opponents in the clubhouse afterwards. Sincere thanks to Anne Farquharson (Team Captain), Morna Bell, Teresa Lynch, Jo Menzies, Elaine Robson and Sue Waddell for giving up their time to represent the Club.
