Captain's Letter 2019
January 2019
A Happy New Year to all members of Ayrshire Ladies County Golf Association.
I can’t believe we’re almost into the third week of the New Year, and I have already discarded all the New Years resolution I made!
We would like to thank all our members for their support and encouraging ladies into golf and, as a result of recruitment posters, we have 15 new members which is fantastic. I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all of them.
2019 is a big year for ladies golf in Ayrshire, we are hosting The West of Scotland inter county golf championship at Prestwick Golf Club on June 17-19 where the ALCGA team will be looking for your support - we are always looking for trolley pullers, ball spotters and spectators.
.
We are also celebrating 110 years of ALCGA which is a fantastic achievement, thanks to all our members over the years for their continued support.
The date for the rearranged gin tasting night is Tuesday 19th February; there will be Mocktails for those of you who are driving along with cocktails for those not so keen on Gin. The original tickets can still be used. Please contact any of the committee if additional tickets are now required.
A quick reminder that subscriptions are now due and can be paid by cheque, bank transfer or competition vouchers. Please encourage your friends to come and join us this year, we have some fantastic courses on the fixture, as well as having good fun at our social nights.
Thanks again for all your support and hope to see you on the Ayrshire fairways.
Always yours
Liz Wilson
Captain

Centenary Trophy
Ayrshire Girls' final competition of the season was played over Barassie Links on Saturday. This was a first time of playing the course for most of the girls and it couldn't have happened on a better day with blue skies and sunshine all afternoon. The winner of the stableford competition was Cristina McCracken (Troon Ladies) playing off 28 who finished on 35 points. Runner-up was Barassie girl Katie Ronnie(30) who had 31 points. Sarah Ramsay(West Kilbride) was the top silver player on 29 points.
The Pre-handicap girls played the 9 hole Hillhouse course with forward tees at a few of the more difficult holes. It was a very close contest all the way for these girls, and I'm sure it won't be too long until they get their handicaps. Results:-
1st Tammi Grady (Ardeer) 59
2nd Connie Greig (Barassie) 60
3rd Melissa Graham (Barassie) 62
The putting competition was won by Melissa.
Very well done to all the girls who played today. Cristina is pictured with the Centenary Trophy along with the runner-up trophy for the West Girls' Bronze Championship.
