JUNE LOCKHART – OBITUARY NOTICE

Posted on May 1, 2022 | by Marianne McKelvie

It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that June Lockhart, past County Captain, passed away peacefully this morning at St. Margaret’s Hospice.

June was a great friend to many in the County and always had a smile for you and a wee funny story. June will be missed by us all at RLCGA.

Our thoughts are with Iain and Gordon. Funeral arrangements will be advised when available.

SCOTTISH GOLF (SG) VMS DAY AT ST. ANDREWS OLD COURSE

Posted on April 16, 2022 | by Fiona Armour

Our RLCGA VMS Development and Webmaster Fiona Armour was delighted to be asked by our SG VMS Customer Account Manager Gary Hamilton (pictured with Fiona on the putting green) to be one of his three invited guests at the VMS Golf Day on St Andrews Old Course on Thursday (14th April). The other two members of the team were Joe O’Neil, Club Secretary at Cochrane Castle GC and William Fleming, Vice Captain and Match and Handicap Secretary at Ballochmyle GC. The other teams comprised of Accounts Managers and their invited representatives from VMS Clubs and Associations under their responsibility and members of the SG VMS Team.

First visit for Fiona to the Old Course and it is indeed a challenging course hence the Women’s Green Tee Course Rating of 75.5 and Slope Rating 138. It has tight fairways and is littered with bunkers, especially those deadly pot ones, that you don’t see until it’s too late ! While Fiona managed to miss most of the bunkers the mile long putts on the huge greens were her downfall with too many three putts so had to settle for 27 Stableford points. Fellow team mate Joe O’Neil played very well coming first with 39 points so it was good to bring home the eventual winner of the event.

Here are some views from the course including the scary drive that faces you at the 17th Road Hole. Big hitters cut the corner by going over the adjacent hotel property. Fiona took the conservative ‘chicken’ route and landed on the fairway avoiding the bunkers.

  • 18th Hole from the Tee
  • 18th Green

Fiona had a thoroughly enjoyable day and a big thank you to Gary Hamilton not only for inviting her to represent the County at this event, and the hospitality extended by SG to all the invited guests, but also for the invaluable assistance and ongoing support that Gary provides to the County in our use of VMS to manage our membership and run competitions.

CAROL FELL ANNOUNCES HER RETIREMENT FROM GOLF REPORTING

Posted on April 10, 2022 | by Fiona Armour

After 19 years our stalwart member and golf news reporter extraordinaire Carol Fell announced yesterday on her Carol Fell Blog Site that following the launch of our new County Website she is retiring from reporting on Ladies and Girls golf across the West of Scotland and further afield.

In her announcement post (CLICK HERE) she relates how she got into golf reporting and creating websites over the years for so many golfing organisations.

We pay homage to Carol’s reporting and pioneering IT achievements for the County and other Ladies golf organisations in the History sub-menu of our website and provide links to the comprehensive and fascinating RLCGA Centenary Book she authored in 2009 as part of the County celebrations upon reaching this significant milestone.

It is because of Carol’s extensive reporting that we can provide our News Archive sub-menu and Gallery of photographs and videos going back to 2003 that record so many significant events and bring back great memories.

We are all indebted to Carol for the sterling work she has done for the County and the support and enthusiasm she has shown as a matter of course for all Scottish Ladies and Girls golf. She has, however, well and truly earned her retirement and can now spend more time enjoying her golf, socialising and following our County News and Facebook Posts.

Thank you very much Carol from all of the current and past RLCGA members. You will most definitely be missed but your legacy lives on.
