News Update

 

I am conscious that it is some time since I wrote anything for the Ladies blog because there was really nothing to say, but I am pleased to say that the Ladies Committee met today in person for the first time this year and resulting from this, I now have various bits of information to report.

Firstly, we decided that the Gellatly Rosebowls competition will only be played once the restrictions are lifted regarding touching other people’s equipment.   Dates will then be re-arranged for the various rounds of play.  

The friendly match against Auchterarder has been rescheduled to 5^th July.   Because the clubhouse has been closed for so long, our Committee have decided to ask all the ladies who entered  the friendly and Handicap League matches online, to please put in their names on the entry lists which will be posted this weekend on the upstairs locker room board.   This will give everyone who missed the cut off entry date to now enter these which will help our Match Secretary, Jacqui to organise.  

I have selected a squad for the Annodata competition (this was originally called the Mail on Sunday) -Blairgowrie are drawn at home against Panmure and the first match requires to be played by 31^st May.    I have asked the Club to let me have dates when the match can be arranged and  I will be back in touch to  keep everyone informed well in advance.

The draw for the Columbine Cup (Senior Gents v Ladies) for 25^th May is posted on the upstairs locker room notice board. Once I have been given the Gents team and actual times, I will notify everyone.            

It may be that there will be sufficient space to accommodate us all for our meal in the dining room after play – please note the requirements for change of dress  this year have been waived.

Regarding handicaps for single matchplay, we require is use the slope tables to convert our handicap index to a course handicap then apply the full difference between the two. 

For general play scores being entered on your phone app for  the WHS, a score should be entered for each hole – please note, no returns are unacceptable as this has a detrimental effect on your handicap.    Please also note that if you are entering a general play score, you can only do so at the Club after play. 

I hope to see you all soon and wish you all a good golfing season.     

Margaret Kerr, Ladies Captain
