MATCH V PITLOCHRY AWAY 21ST AUGUST 2026

 Blairgowrie V Pitlochry  Away on 21st August

Although we set off from the first tee wearing jackets as there was a stiff breeze, by the time we had played a couple of holes the layers started to come off in the warm sunshine.  The course was looking magnificent and of course the views all round were spectacular.  

The golf was mixed and some of us (naming no names!) struggled against the stiff opposition put up by the Pitlochry ladies.  However, the Blairgowrie members enjoyed the opportunity to play such a picturesque and interesting course.  The result was a convincing 3-0 win to Pitlochry.

Afterwards we enjoyed a delicious meal and a good chat in the clubhouse.

Thanks to the Blairgowrie team of Eileen Brown, Sheila Bruce, Carolyn Haddow, Linda Rice, Louise Whitehead and Gill Tissell (team captain) for representing the club.

LADIES PAST CAPTAINS DAY 18TH AUGUST 2026

 

The Past Captains  Day teed off at 10 am with 12 ladies playing a Stableford.  The incentive of playing for the Muriel Rae Claret Jug made for a keen competition  The weather was favourable warm and sunny and  an enjoyable fun game was had by all.

After the match the ladies changed looking lovely in summer dresses.  Heather Dawson welcomed the 18 past captains including those who were attending the lunch only.  It was a lively, happy afternoon with much laughter and chat as friends came together .

The day was complete when Heather announced the winner of the Muriel Rae Claret Jug is Sue Waddell with 37 points and  runner-up Mary Hope with 35 points

MATCH FRIENDLY AWAY AT DOWNFIELD 12TH AUGUST 2026

 

Downfield Report 12th August

The Blairgowrie Ladies received a warm welcome at Downfield on 12th August.  We teed off in bright sunshine The tree lined course afforded much needed shade. There was clear evidence that a number of holes had a few changes, making approaches to the greens very different from previous years.

Following the match both teams enjoyed a lovely two course meal in the newly refurbished clubhouse which presented as bright and airy. Votes of thanks were given by Team Captains..

The result was 3-1 win to Downfield, with our two players Jo and Teresa winning their match never having played the course before. 

I would like to than Carolyn Haddow, Fiona Edwards, Anne Walker, Jo Menzies, Teresa Lynch, Linda Rice and Denise Ginley.

Fiona Johnston (Team Captain)
