NORTHERN DIVISION INTER COUNTIES JAMBOREE

The Jamboree took place at Edzell over the weekend. The weather was not kind with most of the play taking place in a heavy drizzle. Fortunately the sun decided to shine on the final afternoon.

As spectators we saw some wonderful golf played over the weekend particularly in the singles when birdies were required to win a hole.

Congratulations to Aberdeenshire who were the overall winners. Our P&K girls were joint second with Angus. The results were so close with our girls being the only team to beat Aberdeenshire.

 Final scores:  Aberdeenshire       4 points
                       Perth & Kinross     4 points
                       Angus                   4 points
                       Northern Counties 0 points

Aberdeenshire won on games won 18.5 with P&K and Angus both on 14.5


Well played girls.

We also heard at the weekend that Kirstie Brodie, Strathmore, who could not be at Edzell because she was playing in the Stephen Gallacher Foundation event at Cardrona, has been selected to represent Scotland in the European girls' amateur team championship in Norway next month and for the European Young Masters in Switzerland.

Good luck to all our squad for the rest of the season.

North of Scotland

We have extended the closing date for the North of Scotland until 18th June. There is still time to get your entry in. (Forms on link at RH of page.)  There are scratch and handicap prizes so any P&K member can enter and potentially do well on Dunblane, a P&K course.  P&K had a winner last year so come on ladies support this event.

Commonwealth Spoons

We had a bit of a stir at the Commonwealth Spoon qualifier at Dunning last week. Whilst the course was in excellent condition, unfortunately Dunning had also scheduled a men's competition immediately in front of us. In an attempt to squeeze everyone in, they tried to compress the time between starts to 10 mins instead of 15. This just made a bad situation worse but was entirely outwith our control. After our committee meeting this week we agreed that the Commonwealth Spoons qualifier in future will be held on an 18 hole course. We have written to Dunning regarding the complaints we received and they have admitted they were at fault and have offered their apologies.

Junior member Megan Thom and Helen Lang had a marathon battle which went all the way to the 20th hole where Megan sank her put for a par to close the match.
