LADIES CAPTAIN v VICE CAPTAIN SEASON OPENING EVENT - 29th March

I am very much looking forward to kicking off the new season by competing for the friendship bowl in the traditional Ladies Captain v Vice Captain match.

The day will commence with a group photo at 9:30am on the 1st tee of Rosemount, with a shotgun start at 10am.  A stableford competition will also take place on the Wee Course, with two opening day prizes to play for.

Fairway mats will not be required, and there is no need to change for lunch (but of course you can if you wish to do so).

After play there will be a one course lunch in the dining room - this is open to all lady members, including those that have been unable to play on the day.

Menu options and booking details are shown below.  I hope you can join us.
