WINTER LEAGUE FRIENDLY AWAY TO ANSTRUTHER - Sunday, 5th October

This was the first of our Winter League Friendly matches.  It was also the first time that some of the ladies had played the Anstruther course.  We played 2 loops of the 9 hole course in the 4BBB format.

Following Storm Amy which had closed lots of golf courses, including Anstruther, we were relieved to find ourselves playing in the sunshine with no rain whatsoever, albeit in very windy conditions.  The course itself was a real challenge for most, especially in the windy conditions and the greens were a test too!

Post golf we enjoyed tasty soup and sandwiches and talked about our shots on various holes including the notorious "rockies" hole !

The home team were triumphant with a 3-0 win and despite the loss for the Blairgowrie ladies, we all really enjoyed our time there.  Everyone at Anstruther were friendly and made us feel very welcome.

Here are some photos from the day......




Thank you to Heather Dawson, Pauline Hill, Eileen Brown, Maggie Marshall (Team Captain), Shirley Lewis and Teresa Lynch for giving up their time to represent the club.

LADIES TEXAS SCRAMBLE OPEN - Tuesday, 9th September

One hundred and twenty ladies were welcomed yesterday to Blairgowrie Golf Club to play in the Ladies Texas Scramble Open in teams of 4.  The texas scramble was a fun format which required 3 drives each with the added challenge of nearest the pin on the 15th.  The 16th tee was positioned so that  you had to hit a good shot over the water !  The weather was very kind to us with the sun shining, adding to an even more enjoyable day.

Rosemount looked fantastic and thankfully had enjoyed some much needed rain of late presenting the course in beautiful condition.

The Ladies Captain Tombola raised another £311.50 in aid of Alzheimer Scotland with ladies winning a wide variety of prizes including Highland Park glasses, Prosecco, wine, chocolates, leather bound Macallan notebooks, Rum, Polo shirts, candles and much more !!

Thank you to the volunteers manning the desk :  Iain Valentine, Maggie Marshall, Heather Dawson, Marion Kay and Elaine Robson. 

My thanks also go to everyone involved in organising the event including the office staff, catering and pro shop staff and of course the green keeping staff.

Here are the prize winners - full results have been posted on the website.
