Scots Vets hoping for hat trick at Strathmore

Scottish Vets Team are hoping to accomplish a Hat Trick over the next three days competition at Strathmore Golf Centre. Liz Miskimmin our County President is also the President of the Vets and is hoping to win the Stirling Miller Trophy for a third year in a row.
There are three new faces in the Scottish Squad Lorna Bennett (Ladybank), who has just reached the minimum entry age of 50. Cecilia Kenny (Dunblane New) mother of Scottish women's Champion Lynne Kenny herself the winner of the Scottish veteran women's title at Blairgowrie and Karen Ballantyne (Craigmillar Park) winner of last year's Scottish Title at Ballater.
Scotland play South today and this will go a long way to decide the winners of the trophy this year.
