WELL DONE ALEXANDRA
Congratulations go to Alexandra Bushby who took part in the Helen Holm Scottish women's open amateur stroke-play championship at Troon over the weekend. The event had a handicap ballot of 3 or less. Friday and Saturday Alex returned scores of 79 on Friday and an excellent 76 on Saturday. Par of the course is 75. The field was then cut and Alexandra made the cut to play in the final day on Sunday. Although Alex didn't return such a good score (84) she was, quite rightly, very pleased with her overall performance.
The winner of the tournament was 24 year old Barbara Genuini from near Nice. She won the prestigious title by two strokes with a total of 11-under-par 214 for the 54-hole event.
Well done Alex you did yourself and us proud.

ALEX PLAYS IN THE HELEN HOLM
County Champion Alexandra Bushby is P&K's only entrant in this years Helen Holm Scottish women’s open amateur stroke-play championship over the Troon Portland links. Alex scored a very credible 79 over the par 75 course. Sahra Hassan from South Wales, a Curtis Cup reserve, is in pole position with a very impressive 68.
Well done Alex and we wish her the very best in today's final round.
Fellow squad member Emily Ogilvy would normally feature in this event but is recovering from a dislocated shoulder and did not enter. However I am please to say, Emily is recovering well and is taking part in the County Championship at Alyth.

SENIOR COACHING
The second of our coaching sessions took place today at Gleneagles Golf Academy. The focus for the day was 'short game' and the pro's certainly put the girls through their paces!! Following a brief sessions the girls, watched by the professionals, played an 18 par competition which consisted of 9 difficult positions that the girls were required to get' up and down' in two shots. Hence the 18 par.
Some of the spots chosen by the boys were extremely testing but the girls rose to the occasion and some of the shots played were fantastic. It also shows the girls which part of their game they should concentrate on.
All the girls enjoyed the coaching and we hope they are ready for a very successful season! Well done girls.

I spoke with Annabel on Friday night and she said the conditions were tougher on the final day with some very difficult pin placements. A great start to Annabel's season. Annabel's team Scotland 2 finished 5th one place ahead of Scotland 1 team. England were the overall team winners.
Megan Aird had a 97 to add to her 83 a very creditable total of 180, well done Megan. Emily Aird had 100 in the first round followed by 103 to-day, a total of 203, great effort Emily.

MATCH AT GLENEAGLES
Unfortunately our first inter county friendly match didn't quite go the way we had hoped! All four senior matches went Stirling and Clackmanans way. The team of Laura Walker, Eve Muirhead, Fiona Ramsay, Jillian Milne, Gwen Lambie, Jane Yellowlees, Sal Shepherd and Carol Lambie all did us proud by fighting hard against stiff opposition with some matches going all the way to the 18th. I was very proud to see the fighting spirit if the girls and was very pleased to see the way they supported each other even when their matches were over. Injured squad member Emily Ogilvy also came along to give the girls her support.
The juniors, I am very pleased to say, was a much happier result with both matches going to P&K. The first team were Annabel Niven and Megan Aird who fought hard throughout their match and won by one hole. The girls were giving 7 shots and to play some great golf to win through. The second team were Aillie Burnett and Emily Aird who also won their match 2 up. The girls fought hard and were not daunted by the occasion. The officials of President Liz Miskimmin, Vice Captain Lenore Kyle, Match Secretary Shona Leighton and Junior Assistant Pam Drysdale and myself were all impressed by the standard of play and the way in which all team members conducted themselves on the course.
Well done all and a very big thank you to Match Secretary Shona Leighton for her hard work in the organisation of the event.

JUNIOR DAY AT STRATHMORE
On Sunday 14 juniors are making their way to Strathmore Golf Club where they will be paired with a senior player for a greensome competition. We were hoping to pair every junior with a squad member but with more juniors wishing to take part than we actually have senior squad members we are drafting in some lower handicap P&K members to help out, some of whom are past team members. Our gratitude go to Strathmore Golf Centre who not only are offering courtesy of the course but following the demand by the juniors, have agreed to provide more Tee Times than we originally requested.
There will be prizes for scratch and handicap, so fingers crossed for some good weather on the day. I will post some photo's next week.

SENIOR TRAINING DAY
Unfortunately the weather let us down again on Easter Sunday! Gleneagles Golf Academy woke up to 1 to 2 inches of snow which made our 2nd Senior Squad coaching session a bit of a non starter!
Coaches at Gleneagles had devised an outdoor coaching day which was to focus on all aspect of the girls short game and of course due to the snow we had to cancel the sessions. We will rearrange for another day when hopefully this very unexpected spell of weather has improved!

CONGRATULATIONS CARLY!!
What wonderful news came to me whilst playing golf in Tenerife!! The news being that P&K squad member Carly Booth had been selected for the Curtis Cup Team which will be played at St Andrews this year. Carly, at 15, becomes the youngest ever player to be selected for a GB&I Curtis Cup team. The previous youngest was Jane Connachan from Musselburgh when she made her debut at the age of 16 in 1980.
This is a fantastic honour for Carly and one which she is more than ready to accept. She has already been part of the Junior Ryder Cup team and playing against the United States will not intimidate our Carly at all in fact it will probably inspire her!
Carly's response when hearing the news was 'Awesome, Awesome, Awesome'!! We all send Carly our heart felt congratulations and look forward to seeing her at St. Andrews!
The team along with ages are below:
Liz Bennett (Brokenhurst Manor) 25, Carly Booth (Comrie) 15, Krystle Caithness (St Regulus) 19, Jodi Ewart (Catterick) 20, Breanne Loucks (Wrexham) 20, Florentyna Parker (Royal Birkdale) 18, Michele Thomson (McDonald Ellon) 19, Sally Watson (Elie & Earlsferry Ladies) 16.
Reserves:
1 Kerry Smith (Waterlooville) 36, 2 Sahra Hassan (Vale of Glamorgan) 20, 3 Rachel Jennings (Izaak Walton) 19, 4 Danielle McVeigh (Royal Co Down Ladies) 20.

ELITE GIRLS TRAINING SESSION
Yesterday was the first of three Elite Girls training sessions at Gleneagles. Coaches John, Andrew and Brian had the eight girls working hard on their long game.
The photo's show the afternoon girls who consisted of Megan Aird, Emily Aird, Tricia Mennie and Lauren Marchbank. I appologise to the morning girls, Erin Millar, Allie Burnett, Laura Campbell and Caitlin Bartrop as I forgot to take my camera out! But dont worry we will catch you all next time!
All the girls enjoyed the session and we look forward to seeing them on the 9th of March for the next coaching session and also the Senior squad and Girls squad day at Strathmore on the 30th of March.

FIXTURE LIST
It has been brought to my attention that there has been a slight technical error with the date for the Dunkeld Fixture which is in the book as Monday 5th June, when it fact it should read Thursday 5th of June. Sorry about that!!
I have also been asked how the dates for the North of Scotland are chosen. As most of you will be aware the North of Scotland is historically played the week following the Jamboree. The Jamboree takes place on the last Saturday, Sunday and Monday of June therefore the North of Scotland is played the following week which normally is the first monday in July. Unfortunately due to the way the dates land this year it makes North of Scotland slightly later! To explain this futher I have lisited the last few years dates as an example.
2002
Jamboree : 22nd - 24th June
N of S : 1st - 3rd July
2003
Jamboree : 28th - 30th June
N of S : 7th - 9th July
2004
Jamboree : 26th - 28th June
N of S : 5th - 7th July
2005
Jamboree : 25th - 27th June
N of S : 4th - 6th July
2006
Jamboree : 24th - 26th June
N of S : 3rd - 5th July
2007
Jamboree : 23rd - 25th June
N of S : 2nd - 4th July
2008
Jamboree : 28th - 30th June
N of S : 7th - 9th July
I hope this explains the dates fully and if you ever want to check when these events will take place just work on this same formula! Leap years of course makes a difference to the dates too. As you can see we have come full cycle from 2003!
I hope that all makes sense!
