We were lucky to have the talented Anne Finnie to run 2 wreath making classes in the club. 16 ladies spent a fun time showing their artistic flare, making very professional door wreaths. This was followed by a lovely Christmas spread and a glass of prosecco. Our thanks go to Pauline MacEwan's sister and also to Leannna.
We were lucky enough, on Wed 4th, to have a dry morning and so the 9 hole Competition was able to be played in good conditions. 28 ladies played a 2 ball better ball stableford and several more non golfers joined the players for a festive lunch. Christmas jumpers were very much on display and there were a few ladies with Christmas head wear as well. The result was very close and had to be decide on a countback, the winning pair were Louise Cooper and Chris Minto. Best Chrismas outfit winner was Joy McLeod

As most of you are probably aware, the greens maintenance program is underway. Temporary greens will be in play as work is carried out on the main green.
Please book your tee time for tomorrow . If you don't wish to submit a score , just don't enter the competition, but play anyway.
Sorry for inconvenience.
We were lucky again today as it was a beautiful day for our fun Australian Scramble. Thanks to Lilias and Pamela for organising - great job ! As many of you realised this event usually has no entry fee. As the charity TriAm was cancelled due to bad weather, we have decided that rather than return £5 to everyone, the money will be donated to the Captains Charity.

Ladies, creating the correct card on competition days is still causing problems. When you have completed your round and submitted your score, please always check the leaderboard (either on your phone or ask in the Proshop) to make sure your score is showing. If it is not, please contact me asap. I can only change your score submission to a competition score if notified on the day of the competition.
Thank you for your help with this,
Karen

The West Ren team had a disappointing night at Gourock yesterday, Tuesday 18 June.
On the plus side, it was a lovely warm evening and the company was good. On the negative side however, it was a VERY slow round, with several Gents' ties just ahead of the team match, and we found the course very tricky. The final result was 5-1 to Gourock.
We will hope to meet them at home next time and have a better result.
Still all to play for this season however with 2 games remaining.
Ladies I am sure you will all agree, that our Captain Kate put on a great day for us all. Even the weather was lovely 😄. Thank you Kate from us all.

Well played all 😀🏌
Ladies, there has been a little confusion on the correct way to calculate foursomes handicaps. The following rules should be followed.
Work out the course handicap for each player (available from the board), add them together , divide by 2 & round. Do the same for the opposition and establish the difference.
Hope this helps

Medal Final Winner (lowest net score from any eligible 2023 medal winner):
ALISON TEMPLETON 73
Last night was the start of our 2024 West Renfrewshire League campaign.
The team of Jan, Eleanor, Eunice, Kate, Karin M and Alison T, managed to scrape a home win 3.5 games to 2.5 against Ralston, I am relieved to report. (The League is tight enough that if you don't win your home matches, you are practically guaranteed relegation for the following season).
The matches with Ralston are always very friendly affairs, played in good spirit and it was a lovely night for golf - which was just as well as the matches finished and everyone had to congregate at the picnic tables, the Clubhouse already being closed.
Alison Templeton was the winner of the Captain's Quaich and Fiona Aitken won the Welcome Quaich. Both played on Sunday 28th April.
Ladies, please note that due to unforeseen circumstances, the date of The Past Lady Captains Competition and lunch has changed . New date is Friday 12th July. Sorry for any inconvenience 😟
Many congratulations to Jan who had the lowest net score of 68 in Wednesday's qualifying round at Cathcart Castle. There were 53 Ladies playing in the County Championship Qualifier and Jan has now won the Peggy Clark Cup.
In Friday's Championship final, the 12 year old golfing sensation Sabrina Wong from Cathkin Braes beat Jennifer Rankine in an amazing match in which the girls made 9 birdies between them, in the pouring rain. Incredible golf.
Meanwhile back at the Peggy Clark Cup, a fascinating review of past winners reveals not only Jan but Denise Cowan, Lesley Robertson (in both 2022 and 1995!) and ex-Ranfurly Castle and now Sky Sports celebrity, Iona Stephen, who won it 10 years ago this month.

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.
