Perth and Kinross County AGM and Prize Giving at Craigie Hill 26/11/09.

Brad Bannerman received the Under 14 Coaching Medal prize, Grant Martin and Rory Tinker received the Junior Foursomes prize and Allan Easton received a prize for being a member of the successful Perth and Kinross Gary Harvey winning team.

To cap a great night for Strathmore it was announced Allan Easton has been awarded a Scholarship at Gleneagles which gives him full use of all the Courses, full use of the Academy and the coaching facilities, free range balls and coaching from Gleneagles Professionals for 2010. Allan practices constantly and last winter was seen in all weathers hitting 100's of balls and spending hours on the putting green. His efforts have now not only been recognised at Strathmore but by the County Coaching Selectors.

Strathmore Juniors for 2010 have now been awarded 2 Scholarships and both Allan and Hannah merit these rewards for all the hard work they both put into their practice. We wish them both the best and know they will take full advantage of this fantastic opportunity to work on and improve their games.

CONGRATULATIONS EMILY


Junior member Emily Aird has been awarded a Personal Achievement Award for her golfing accomplishments this year. In particularly her participation in the US Kids Golf European Tournament at Gullane where she finished a very credible 6th and also for being invited to take part in the Teen World Championships in North Carolina.


The award ceremony was at the Perth concert Hall on Wednesday night where she had a photograph taken with Elizabeth Grant, Convenor of the Lifelong Learning Committee and John Fyffe the Executive Director for Education and Children's Services.


It fantastic for Emily to be recognised is this way and we are all very proud of her.


If you would like to see Emily being interviewed while she was in the US go to http://www.uskidsgolf.com/ and click on tournaments. A video screen comes up on the right hand side of the next screen. If you scroll down on the video list you should find one that is called Teen World Championship Day 1 Girls 2009 (it then tells you it is day 3 but just keep going). It's great.
