Murrayshall and Kinross were in the runners up spot, with Murrayshall taking the second spot on a games count back.

Scottish Golf - Regional & National Forums

Congratulations to our Past Captain, Carol Muir, who has been invited to be part of the Working Group to oversee the process to consider Regions (Areas and Counties) and establish regional and national forums, as referenced in the amalgamation proposal. 

The new Board agreed that both issues are inextricably linked and the group will lead a process to engage and consult with Areas and Counties to determine an agreed way forward for regions and forums.

The Board has therefore established a Regional Forums and Regions Working Group comprising; 

Eleanor Cannon (Chair)	Chair of Scottish Golf
Audrey Sturgess	Scottish Golf Director for Integration
Neil MacDonald	Scottish Golf Director for Championships
David Miller	Past President of Ayrshire Golf Association
Neil Park	Secretary of The Lothians Golf Association
Mary Hayden	Captain of Northern Counties Ladies Golf Association
Carol Muir	Past Captain of Perth & Kinross Ladies County Golf Association
Hamish Grey	Executive
Andy Salmon	Executive

As you see Carol will be part of a prestigious group and we wish her well in her role. 2016 will be an important year for everyone involved in Scottish Golf.

The first meeting of all areas and Counties to discuss these important matters will be held on Sunday 31st January 2016 at Gleneagles hotel at which P&KLCGA will be represented by Alison Stockley, Moira Begbie and Pat Hebner.

CONGRATULATIONS TO MUCKHART

The Scratch League dinner AGM and prize giving took place last night by this years host Blairgowrie GC. Heather Anderson chaired the meeting. Muckhart were announced as this years Scratch League Champions after what was an extremely close fought league. Muckhart pipped Blairgowrie after count back of games by only 0.5.

Muckhart, Blairgowrie and Pitlochry all finished the tournament on 10 points so therefore the placings were decided on games won. Muckhart had 21, Blairgowrie 20.5 and Pitlochry 19.

Our thanks go to Blairgowrie for a lovely dinner last night and in particular Heather and Gillian Wallace for all their efforts this year. Next years hosts are Craigie Hill, however the floor was sad to hear Crieff would no longer be taking part.

Above is the Muckhart team being presented with the trophy from County Captain Carol Muir and below is the full results for 2015.
