Another fabulous win for the GREENLEES team against Lanark this week. 6.5 to 2.5. Very well done Ladies. 

LADIES OPEN TRI-AM

There were 78 ladies entered this year in our Ladies Open Tri-am. Unfortunately, although the course was looking fabulous (and there were many compliments) the weather was awful! Only 13 teams completed the 18 holes and all deserved prizes for doing so! 

Very many thanks to Marion who organised the event. Thanks also to starters, Pamela MacKenzie, and Anne Judge and ‘Check in girls’ Gillian, Vivien and Louise. Thank you to our spot prize sponsers and to Mark, Tim and our Captain Earle who were very supportive all day. Leanna and team provided some lovely specials for lunch.

FUN MIXED COMPETITIONS

I would like to encourage all ladies to take part in the following two mixed events. Both great fun!

Any questions, please contact Karen or myself.

Greenkeepers Day 

This year Greenkeepers Day will be on Saturday the 13th July. It has been set-up as a Mixed Fun Team event (ideally a team of 4) with 2 scores (Stableford) from the Team players to count on each hole. i.e. best 2 points score on each hole (net). The course will be set-up with novel pin positions and unusual tee options in this non-qualifying for handicap event. A portion of entry fees (£5 per player) will go to supporting the greenkeepers Christmas party with a donation bucket also available in the shop. Support your excellent Greenkeepers by entering a Team. 

Ranfurly Scramble 

This mixed event takes place on the 20th July and will be a shotgun start at 9am. Players are asked to sign up in advance (details emailed) with teams drawn and tees allocated on the day when players arrive. This is a great opportunity to meet other members you might not normally get a chance to play alongside.

Another fine win for the Greenlees team! Many congratulations to all team members for the resounding 8 - 1 victory over Whitecraigs yesterday. Fabulous!

COMPETITION SCORES

 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

ANNUAL GOLF OUTING
