P&K COUNTY PRIZE GIVING

Unfortunately Brad Bannerman and Megan Ashley were not available to attend today's event but I had the pleasure of joining Strathmore's 3 Scottish Academy players to watch them pick up their Trophies. Well done to Alex Simpson, Kirsty Brodie and Amy Mitchell. So proud of you all.

2015 PRIZE GIVING

Huge thank you to the magnificent 7 who turned up for the Texas Scramble. Junior captain Tod Bannerman was supported by his vice captain Conor Hughes and along with Flora McGregor and myself we took on Junior Club Champion Alex Simpson, handicap Champion Amy Mitchell, James Bonar and Dominika Ingliska. David Norman was kind enough to allow us to use the winter course on Rannaleroch and we played the front 9. Amazingly our score were tied even after count back last 6, 3 and 1, so a draw was agreed. The players also would like to thank David and the centre for the food which helped heat them up after the game. 
The Agm went well with Dawn having to finish my speech after I got a wee bit emotional (not for the first time) Every year our players exceed my expectations and I so proud of everything they achieve and this year was special as Alex became our first International team winner and Brad, Alex and Kirsty were magnificent in wining the Scratch League and proving me right that we have the best juniors in the County. With so many other successes 2015 was a great year and I can't wait to see what 2016 brings.


Tod won both President Cup and Hamish McTavish
