On a lovely sunny Sunday morning both squads got together for a practice around Kilmacolm golf course.

We played foursome format with a junior in each team as part of our winter training program, the girls enjoyed their day in the sunshine.

Many thanks to Kilmacolm GC for courtesy of the course.

Stella Bowie, Lady Captain of Kilmacolm GC, welcomed this year’s finalists – Lesley Robertson and Allison Murray (Ranfurly Castle GC) and Julie Whitelaw and Maureen McDevitt (Whitecraigs GC) on a beautiful sunny day.

The match was a closely contested final with the game being all square at the turn. Lesley and Allison won holes 14, 15 and 16 to retain the trophy for a second year. Congratulations to the winners and a special mention to Julie and Maureen for reaching the final in their first year as county members.

Thanks to Sandra Littlejohn for refereeing the final. A huge thank you to Kilmacolm GC for courtesy of the course which was in superb condition for the time of year.

The scoring was very impressive in tough conditions, Jayla Kepler [Greenock] took first place in the 18 hole with a staggering 50 stableford points, followed by Natalie Sayers [Kilmacolm] and Ruby Thomson [Kilmacolm] both with 37 points. In the 7 hole Eliza Taher [Old Course Ranfurly] took best gross score. Well done to the prize winners and to all the girls who participated – some exciting handicap reductions ahead.
