Silver Winner with 36 points was Jean Irvine
Silver Runner-up with 35 points was Helen Abram (BIH)

Bronze Winner with a wonderful 41 points was Morag Cunningham

THE POOH PUTTER COMPETITION -- IS A DRAW

Pooh Putter Competition  - 12th August 2015

30 Ladies took part in the Annual battle between the Lady Captain's Team and the Vice Captain's Team today.  It was keenly fought and ended in an honourable draw.
It is interesting to note that this is only the 2nd time this has happened since the inception of the Competition in 1975 and the results stand at 21 wins for the Captain's Team and 17 wins for the Vice Captain's Team.  It was lovely to have so many ladies lunching together and if the noise was anything to go by I think it was enjoyed by all.  Perhaps that has also something to do with the fact that no waterproofs or brollies were needed!
