RLCGA COUNTY FOURSOMES

Congratulations to Joy and Vicky who won the Renfrewshire County Foursomes yesterday at Paisley Golf Club.

27 pairs took part - coming from all over Renfrewshire - on a lovely day, on a course that was in very good condition considering the recent wet weather. Paisley is however never an easy course and Joy and Vicky must have played very well for their winning score of net 75. 

They now qualify for the Inter-County Foursomes final and the Commonwealth Spoons competition in September, if they are available to play in these.
