HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE JUNIORS
Must apologise for lack of news being posted last week but family and work commitments have kept me very busy . So in reverse order here are the highlights for the last 10 days.
Josh McKenna and Hannah Robb both played rounds of 81 Scratch - Josh's score was recorded in the Wednesday Stableford where he won the event with 47 points and has now knocked 12 strokes off his original handicap of 28 . Hannah shot 81 in the Strathmore Junior Open on Tuesday, which was sponsored , organised and run by the Centre, many of our juniors took part with Hannah winning the Girls Scratch and Kirsty Brodie winning the Handicap with a nett 76 . Hannah has now knocked 17 strokes off her handicap during the last 4 months and as she is now playing off 11 I don't think it will be long before she is in single figures. Josh finished 3rd h'cap under 14 and Jamie McCowan won the overall and over 14 h'cap with a nett 68. Below are some photos of Hannah and Kirsty with their trophies.
A Junior Texas Scramble took place on Leitfie on Monday night with Michael Brodie , Tod Bannerman and Euan Robb making up the winning team.
Emily Aird became our first player to make her way to the USA for the Teen World Championships at Pinehurst starting today. Matthew Sime and Kirsty Brodie follow out later for their competition which takes place next week and we wish all 3 the best wishes for a great time and hopefully some good scores along the way.
The Leroch Trophy was washed out on Sunday and an alternative date will be arranged - watch the notice board.
Hannah Robb won the Junior putting competition on Friday.
Unfortunatley Strathmore were knocked out of the Junior Bell Trophy by Alyth in a 3:2 thriller with Josh Mckenna and Frankie Moran winning their matches but with Hannah Robb, Brad Bannerman and John McKenna all losing this allowed Alyth to progress to the semi finals. All the players who took deserve credit for their performances and no doubt are looking forward to competing next year.
The Junior Scratch league team lost narrowly away to Muckart being 2:1 ahead with Allan Easton and Megan Aird recording wins and Rory Tinker losing his match , both the remaining games came to the last tee all square . Both Grant Martin and Emily Aird lost on the last giving victory to the home side.
Last week was also very busy for Megan and Emily who both competed in the Scottish under 21 stroke play at Nairn and also in the Mackie Bowl at Gullane No1 .
Alan Easton also represented Perth and Kinross at Ballumbie in a inter area county event .
Hope I have not missed anything and am now awaiting news from across the pond.
