TWO STRATHMORE MEMBERS RECOGNISED AT NATIONAL LEVEL




Strathmore club Champion Alexandra Bushby has been invited by the SLGA to take part in National B Squad coaching for 2007-2008. This is a fantastic achievement for Alex who has worked extremely hard on her golf over the last two years reducing her handicap from 4 to 1 this year alone. Alex has also represented Perth and Kinross at County level for the last two years and is the current County Champion. She also won the Perth and Kinross Champion of Champions last year.




Junior member Megan Aird has also been invited by the SLGA to take part in the Girls Development squad for 2007-2008. Again this is a fantastic opportunity for Megan who has also worked very hard over the last year. Megan this year was the first girl to reach the Strathmore Junior Championship final, she also represented Perth and Kinross at the inter county championship at Balumbie and was selected by P&K for a scholarship at Gleneagles. Megan certainly took advantage of the scholarship and used the facility as often as possible.


I am delighted for Strathmore but also P&K County who work tirelessly to promote our girls. It is very gratifying to see the efforts rewarded.


Well done girls and take full advantage of all the opportunities that are available.
