Up early this morning to get organised for a busy week ahead. First up a Club Fitting for Ellis Murray and he is delighted to get them and a trolley. His dad told me he had only bought his set for Xmas and that’s him outgrown them in 5 months. Ellis has subsequently donated them to our hire scheme so another new member can benefit from using them, what a generous gesture. Next up was a quickly arranged Flag Competition with Daniel Alexander and Willow Rae taking part. Willows drive on the first was pin high and I wish I’d taken a video of her swing, it was text book. Daniel had a great 5 on the first as did Willow. Both played very well and their 36th shots both finished on the 6th hole. Daniel short of the green and Willow an inch from the hole. Daniel went on to gain his first Certificate by having a 6 on the 9th including a fresh air shot. Fantastic to see these youngsters so keen to get out and play.
Next up was the Crieff Junior Open and I’m so proud of our 6 players who attended. Angus Palmer retained the Jennie Collie Trophy he won last year by returning a gross 75. Jessica Sievwright was the leading girl and also finished 2nd overall in the handicap section. We spoke to both of them tonight and they are delighted with their results. Angus was disappointed he took 3 to get out of a bunker but that’s positive as he knows his score could have been better. Something he will no doubt work on. Jessica didn’t realise how well she had done but a voucher and prize sorted that. Waiting for P&K to confirm but I think more than these 2 will pick up valuable points for the Gleneagles Scholarships.
