TEXAS SCRAMBLE, AGM AND PRIZE GIVING

What an end to a fantastic season. First up the Texas Scramble, 5 teams took part, 4 scored one under par 26’s. Count back on best back 6 still had 3 teams tied as did last 3 !! Considering we had at least one player in every team without a handicap and we required at least one tee shot from every player makes the scoring so impressive. 

6 different players won the 6 monthly medals. New names appeared on trophies for the first time and the camaraderie and support for each other was admirable. Junior Captain Conan Reid not only had a fantastic season winning the Junior Club Championship but also picked up the Most Improved Player. His maturity shone through in his speech and hopefully his inspiration and encouragement will help others achieve their goals. We have a great group of very talented youngster coming through and I believe they have the ability  and desire to do anything. We reached two National Finals this year and had players representing Strathmore all over the country. Over the past 3 or 4 years we have been on a rebuilding programme due to so many of our older players reaching 18 and moving on. Now it looks like we again have strength in depth and we look forward to what 2025 brings.
