PERTH AND KINROSS BOYS AND GIRLS AUTUMN MEDAL

Boys and Girls Autumn Medal

and Boys U16 Championship

 

at Auchterarder

 

on Sunday 29th September 2013

tee times allocated are expected to be 9.00am to 11.30am. Would all players with full handicaps please let me know if they wish to enter asap 

ANOTHER NEW HANDICAP

Benjamin Fischer becomes the latest junior to secure a Congu Club handicap. This playing handicap of 31 means he is only 3 shots away from a full handicap. Benjamin ball striking was very impressive and I expect his handicap to come down very quickly.
