MATCH AT GLENEAGLES

Unfortunately our first inter county friendly match didn't quite go the way we had hoped! All four senior matches went Stirling and Clackmanans way. The team of Laura Walker, Eve Muirhead, Fiona Ramsay, Jillian Milne, Gwen Lambie, Jane Yellowlees, Sal Shepherd and Carol Lambie all did us proud by fighting hard against stiff opposition with some matches going all the way to the 18th. I was very proud to see the fighting spirit if the girls and was very pleased to see the way they supported each other even when their matches were over. Injured squad member Emily Ogilvy also came along to give the girls her support.

The juniors, I am very pleased to say, was a much happier result with both matches going to P&K. The first team were Annabel Niven and Megan Aird who fought hard throughout their match and won by one hole. The girls were giving 7 shots and to play some great golf to win through. The second team were Aillie Burnett and Emily Aird who also won their match 2 up. The girls fought hard and were not daunted by the occasion. The officials of President Liz Miskimmin, Vice Captain Lenore Kyle, Match Secretary Shona Leighton and Junior Assistant Pam Drysdale and myself were all impressed by the standard of play and the way in which all team members conducted themselves on the course.

Well done all and a very big thank you to Match Secretary Shona Leighton for her hard work in the organisation of the event.
