CONGRATULATIONS ROSEANNE
Congratulations go to County Team member Roseanne Niven who finished 2nd in the Paull and Williamsons girls rankings for 2005. A fantastic achievement and one to be very proud of. Roseannes average score in nine of the girls ranking tournaments designated by the SLGA was +2.22.
The overall winner was Krystal Caithness who had an average score of +1.67. County Champion Carly Booth, the long-time leader of the inaugural rankings, only played in five tournaments and therefore did not qualify, as a minimum of 9 tournaments had to be played out of a possible 14.
Roseanne's achievement is a fantastic end to a very successful season and we wish her well with her coaching over the winter with both P&K and the Scottish squad.
