WEE MESSAGE FROM DAWN

 Hi everyone, really pleased to receive all your cards for summer league etc and very happy to enter them. However I am finding it increasingly difficult to read some of the scores, please please please use a pen or a good pencil and write the scores for each individual holes clearly, this would make a handicap secretary very very happy.

Also please return your cards by email, WhatsApp or messenger IMMEDIATELY after play! 

Thank you

WEDNESDAY NIGHT UPDATE

Unbelievable talent on show tonight. All the players are showing so many improvements. It’s very exciting but we need to see more of these youngsters out playing on the course on a regular basis. I believe  that next year we could have amazing GolfSixes and Bell Trophy squads. Rory and Gareth are definitely getting the most out of these kids and they are all listening and paying attention to what they need to work on.

INCREDIBLY BUSY NIGHT








 Full house at coaching tonight three groups of 8 excited youngsters 5 of whom were new members attending their first sessions. Annie and Sam are delighted with their first hire sets and Annie also got got her first golf shoes. Emily swapped her shoes. Harriet and Adrian had outgrown their sets so both were upgraded and Harriet also needed a trolley to go with her new clubs. Lochy was delighted to receive his first certificate. Some great swings on display tonight and Rory was very impressed by the standards. Think I will be busy with Certificates soon !! Brilliant to see these youngsters back out enjoying golf. So many happy, smiley faces and if this is replicated on Wednesday and Saturday what an amazing start to the 2020 coaching.

UPDATE

Just about ready to issue coaching times. After much head scratching and juggling we are just about there. With another potential 3 new members things are looking very promising for the remaining part of the season. With Covid19 we are having to make sure that all safety measures are in place and that everyone is aware of their responsibilities and that these all regulations are adhered to. 

We have 55 Juniors in the programme so far with a few more to confirm so numbers are still very encouraging and we are also seeing a lot more out playing so hopefully when the coaching resumes we will see Strathmore Juniors again come to the fore. 

I have been busy replacing outgrown sets of golf clubs in our now Nationally adopted Club Hire Scheme and also swapping shoes from our free scheme. Most of our new members are requiring Hire sets so our stock recycling is ever changing. 

Looking forward to next week and welcoming our new members and seeing how much progress others have made.
