MARGARET MACRAE



We are sad to announce the passing of Margaret MacRae. Margaret was a life member of Pitlochry and a great supporter of P&K Ladies County. Margaret's health had slowly deteriorated over the last 2 years and was hospitalised just before Christmas. Unfortunately she was unable to go home and passed away peacefully on Wednesday 27th March 
Our thoughts are with her family and many friends.

Margaret’s funeral will take place on Tuesday 9th April, at West Church Pitlochry 12:30.

INTER-COUNTY MATCH - STIRLING & CLACKMANNAN

P&K played Stirling & Clackmannan County Ladies in the first friendly match of 2019 at Falkirk Golf Club (Carmuirs), yesterday. 

The weather was shocking to begin with, cold with strong winds and rain, but did improve as day went on. 

Thanks to Falkirk Golf Club for courtesy of their course, which was in good condition, especially the greens for so early in the season. Thanks also to the Captain of Stirling & Clackmannan, Claire Capocci, and her team for a very warm welcome and some friendly banter.

Result: Stirling & Clackmannan won 3½ - 1½
