P&K SPOTY AWARDS - TEAM OF THE YEAR SHORTLIST

Fingers crossed for our Perth & Kinross Ladies' County Team who have been shortlisted for the P&K SPOTY 2021 Team of the Year award.
The winners of the Perth & Kinross Sports Personality of the Year (SPOTY) Awards will be announced this Friday (4 March 2022).

The top three nominations for the 2021 Team of the Year Award are:

🏌ðŸŋ‍♀️ Perth & Kinross County Ladies Golf Team (P&KLCGT)
"The P&KLCG Team qualified for the Scottish Women’s County Finals (the most prestigious event in the golfing calendar for Ladies County Golf) by winning the North Division Intercounty Championships in June 2021. In what was to be a thrilling three days of golf, the team then won the Scottish Women's County Finals at Forres in August for the 1st time in 68 years!"

ðŸī Pegasus Vaulting Group
"Pegasus Vaulting Group is the most northerly Vaulting Group in Scotland who train in Killiecrankie. After winning the British Championships in 2019 (Senior 1 star event) Covid-19 meant that the team would struggle with the loss of team members, and the ability to train on horses together, as well as all events in 2020 being cancelled. As restrictions eased, the team competed again in 2021, winning the Scottish Championships in September, and then again in October at the British Championships."

Perth High School Under 15 Girls Football Team
"Perth High School Girls football team capped off a perfect season by winning the under-15 Scottish Schools FA Shield in June 2021. It was the first time since 2003 that a girl's football team from the school had won a national trophy. The team - who barely trained together during a Covid disrupted year - won several rounds before scoring an extra time winner to beat SFA football academy St Johns RC from Dundee in the semi-final."

Also shortlisted for a 2021 SPOTY award is former P&K Ladies' County team member Eve Muirhead (Pitlochry) in the Sports Personality category and County member Moira Lumby (King James VI) in the Volunteer category.
