CONGRATULATIONS MARY!
I was delighted to receive an Email from John Menzies today which had some wonderful news regarding Mary's successes whilst in Florida. Mary and her partner won the Countryside ladies doubles this week it was a 36 hole competition played over two days ( better ball) they won by a massive 10 shots from the couple who came second. They were presented with a crystal bowl and a 60$ voucher for the pro shop.
Well done Mary keeping Scotland and Strathmore to the fore in Florida.
(John says he will have pull his socks up in February when he takes part in the men's doubles!! )

JUNIORS WEBSITE
Strathmore Junior Section is being revamped! We have loads of people who are willing to give up their time to help make the Junior Section a much more important and successful part of the Club. The juniors will be spilt into three sections. The first Section with be the Elite Squad which will be made up of juniors who have a Congu Handicap and play on the 18 hole course. Iain Butchart has agreed to take these Juniors under his wing and will organise and be around for competitions. He will also advise the players of county and national competitions which they should be trying to take part in. Already he has been central in arranging our very first male junior, Allan Easton, to be accepted and coached by P&K County Gents Association at Gleneagles. Megan and Emily Aird have also been selected by P&K County Ladies Association for the same coaching.
The next squad with be the Intermediate and will be made up of players who are passed the beginners stage but not quite to the standard of Congu handicap. Fergus Martin has agreed to take these player under his wing and it is hopeful that the Blue Course will be available for them to play their competitions throughout the summer.
And last but not least will be what I think is the most important squad, the beginners. This is the squad where our future players will come from and if we can grap their attention at this stage then hopefully they will continue through the squads. Jackie Moran has agreed to look after and make this squad as much fun as possible for all the players. She is already organising there own logo and lots of fun days and competitions starting with the 'Leaping Launch' which is to taking place on Sunday 17th February.
Other volunteers are Frank Moran who will be in charge of Fund Raising and Sponsorship, Dawn Butchart who along with Jackie will take care of handicaps and Stephen Schofield who will remain as convener. Both Lady and Gent Captains, Jane and Lewis, and our President Peter Tinker have also given their full support to the numerous meetings which have been held over the winter. David Norman has also been invloved in all meetings and has generously agreed to continue to fund the coaching and will support the juniors in any way that he can. There are also lots more volunteers who have already went through disclosure to allow them to help out on days when competitions are being held. However if you are at all interested please contact us as there will be plenty to do!
We really wish this section all the very best and have set up a new website purely for them. We will post all the draws and date of competitions plus any news items of interest. I have put a link to this website along with various other links at the right hand side of this page. I will also try as best as possible to keep you up to date with all the news from the juniors!

SAIR HEID BASH
We held our Sair Heid Bash yesterday and despite the horrible weather conditions 38 hardy souls took part. As the 11th and 12th hole were out of commission it was also decided to missed out the 10th and make the competition over 15 holes. As it was a Shot Gun Start we all finished around the same time and some fantastic scoring was returned yet again. The overall winners on the day were Peter Tinker, David Dawson, Ian Clarke and Alan Christie.
Runners up were Chris Sturgis, Stephen Schofield, Cathy McNab and Rob Milligan.
All players deserved a medal for completing the round and we were all very grateful to David Norman who provided us all with a very welcomed drink from the bar! Thanks also go to the Centre who once again presented us with a fantastic menu which along with the drink, made us feel human again and of course to Marion and Iain for the organisation on the day.
Well done all who took part.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
May I take this opportunity to wish you all a very Happy, Healthy and successful New Year. I have attached another E Card I received from Marion, hope you like it!
