Emily Aird
Michael Brodie

Reserves

Hannah Robb
Rory Dyce
Brad Bannerman

We will not know our opponents until after this Sunday's 2nd semi final but with all of our 5 category one players confirming their availability I am confident that our squad not only have the ability but over the last 4 years they we have built up a tremendous team spirit and winning mentality and we can approach the final with confidence having secured 17.5 match wins out of 20 in the qualifying stages.

As Junior Convenor I am delighted the investment Strathmore Golf Centre have made towards the Junior Section is paying such rich rewards . Not only have we reached the Scratch League Final but 3 of our squad are currently attending Elmwood College to follow a career in the Golf Industry .

With other Clubs struggling to attract Junior Members we are bucking the trend with a membership of 80 and with success breeding success I believe we can continue to grow.

Next Sunday also see our Juniors attempting a hat trick of success's in the British Red Cross at Strathmore with Junior Captain Frankie Moran , Tod Bannerman , Cory Miller and Callum Ewan making up the team.

Craigie Hill is the venue for the P&K Autumn meeting and Rory Tinker , Michael Brodie , Brad Bannerman and Alex Simpson teeing it up in the last County event .

And finally Kirsty Brodie and myself have entered the SLGA Adult and Junior Girl Foursomes Tournament at Auchterarder .

With 10 Junior Coaching sessions also taking place between now and then and a number of juniors having me mark their 3rd cards for handicap this week is going to be a bit hectic but the above achievements make all my and the sections efforts worthwhile .
