Borders
Our preparations for the 2017 season started in earnest on Sunday 19thMarch when the squad went to play Borders Ladies in a friendly match at Peebles Golf Club. Despite heavy rain at the start and a course that was extremely wet underfoot the day proved worthwhile. As there was a large difference in handicaps and we gave 6,9 & 7 strokes we were unlucky to go down 2:1.
Hannah Scott & Karen Ferguson-Snedden won 1 up
Caroline Steedman & Eilidh Crawford lost 2/1
Emma Morrison & Kate Rorke lost 1 down
Juniors – playing foursomes with handicap
Well done to Amy and Lauren who fought from 4 down for a well deserved draw
Amy Foster & Lauren Reid
Lanarkshire
Weather wise, Sunday 26th March was the complete opposite at Lanarkshire Golf Club – the sun shone all day and the course was dry. This time we fielded four couples with the matches being played to scratch and we won 2.5 – 1.5.
Louise Fraser & Alison McBride won 6/5
Juniors – playing foursomes with handicap
Georgia Ledingham & Lucy Morrison lost 5/3
