JUNIOR AUTUMN MEETING - ALYTH

Ten girls turned out to Alyth on Saturday 13th Sept to play for the McPherson Medals and Fun 9 holes competition. Six girls were playing the 18 hole event but unfortunately the weather gods were not kind and the heavens opened just as the girls were starting their rounds. Thunder loomed round the hills and with greens flooding, the medal competition was abandoned to be played another day (date to be confirmed).

The four 9 hole event competitors on the Glenisla who were being guided by Alyth Professional Michael Rae,  had clearly 'had their Weetabix' and braved the rain to complete their pairs texas scramble!

Thank you to Alyth Golf Club for courtesy of the course and to the County Ladies who helped on the day, Lenore, Michelle and Christine and to Michael Rae for taking the 9 hole girls out and providing prizes for them.

Details of the reorganised time to follow.
