THIS IS AN UNBELIEVABLE FIRST FOR STRATHMORE JUNIOR GIRLS

Testament to how far our girls have progressed. Strathmore Gents were struggling to field a Scratch League team and Gents Captain Norman Dyce suggested to the Perth and Kinross Executive that if Strathmore were to include Ladies or Girls then they could field a team. Being one of the most forward thinking Counties in Scotland this was agreed and as Junior Convenor I am personally delighted as I was instrumental in having Girls included in the Junior Scratch League 11 years ago.
This year we will field the first ever all Girl Junior Scratch League team and will have 2 Girls in the Gents Team and 3 in the Ladies Team. This is unprecedented and probably does more to enhance the amalgamation currently going on within Golf. We have recently started including Family Competitions within our Junior Section where parents and grandparents can join in and these are gaining in popularity so if you want to grow golf make it inclusive. Strathmore and P&K are leaders not followers. Maybe the Girls could see into the future ?
