RACE TO TURNBERRY

Most of our members may now be aware that we have qualified for the NGCC final at Turnberry on 20th/21st Oct. Qualification was from results of a nominated competition day which we chose as Club Champ qualification day. The top 5 stableford point scores ( we just adjusted the strokeplay scores to stableford points) were forwarded  and we have qualified!! Congratulations to Anne Baird, Gwen Doe, Jackie Moran , Rosalyn Hall and Dawn Butchart. Connie MacKenzie did qualify but will be travelling the world therefore the next in line moved up. I also get to tag along as the captain gets invited too! ( there are some perks to this job)! Two rounds of golf and 2 nights dinner B+B at Turnberry sounds good.
It is a nationwide charity event with 6 ladies and 6 gents teams competing for the Lee Westwood trophy.
The aim is to raise money for the charity ,On Course Foundation  ,which uses the game of golf as a vehicle for successful recovery for all their members made up of veterans from the British Armed Forces. Worthwhile I am sure. Thank you to the centre for their donation which allowed us entry into the competition.. Good luck to the "girls" I am sure we will all try our very best.
