WINTER TRAINING SQUAD 2018

The following squad will commence Winter Squad Practice on Sunday 18th February & Sunday 4 March 2018.

As the JAMBOREE in June will be held by P & K at Strathmore Golf Club, the more practice on the course the better.  Therefore both sessions will be at Strathmore, who have very generously given us courtesy of their facilities on both occasions.  Special thank you to David Norman who has gone out of his way to help me & give the girls home advantage for the Jamboree.

SCRATCH LEAGUE AGM

The AGM of the P&K Scratch League took place last night at Muckhart Golf Club. The meeting was chaired by Anita Collins the Muckhart Team Captain. Pitlochry won the league with Muckhart a very close second.

This is the first time Pitlochry has won the title in the 30 years the league has been in existence and were understandably delighted with the result. Team Captain

Unfortunately next year only 4 teams will take part in the event which is extremely disappointing. It was decided to continue as normal however all matches will take place prior to the beginning of August then the top two teams will play in a Final match at a neutral venue sometime in September as will the 3rd and 4th place teams.

Again may congratulations to Pitlochry on a well deserved win.
