LADIES CAPTAIN NEWS

 As we approach the end of my tenure as Lady Captain, I am delighted to announce that Mrs Eleanor Stewart has agreed to be the Lady Captain for 2026.  Eleanor has a wealth of experience in the golfing world and has played golf for many years. This will stand her in good stead for her year as lady captain.

When I played my first ever West Renfrewshire match it was at Ralston GC and Eleanor kindly offered to walk around her childhood course with me, giving me insider information.  I wish I could tell you that I won as a result!  

Good luck for next year. 

LADIES ANNUAL DINNER 2025

 Many thanks to all of you who attended our Annual Dinner last Wednesday.  Joy has kindly posted some lovely photos from the evening and thank you for doing this.  I hope all the prize winners get good usage or enjoyment from their wins.  The food was lovely on the night and Leanna, Stephen & Dale all looked after us on the night.  

I would like to thank you all personally for being so generous with the raffle.  We raised an amazing £440 on the night and this will be sent to the Macular Disease Society along with the amount raised at the Charity triam.
