Greenlees Trophy 2008

Last week saw the completion of all three divisions of the 2008 Greenlees Trophy matches. I hope all the teams have enjoyed their games and that they have felt the new system we have tried this year, of having fixture dates and result tables available on the West of Scotland website, has been beneficial.

My thanks go to
Carol Fell who assisted me at the beginning of the season to set everything up and we have worked together through the season to try and make sure that it all ran according to plan.

Several clubs had to postpone matches due to weather conditions and I am only surprised that more matches did not require postponement considering what a wet summer we have endured!

Congratulations to
The Ladies Golf Club Troon, promoted from Division 2 last year, to being winners of the Greenlees Trophy this year, with 47.5 points. Ranfurly Castle are runners up with 42.5. ---- Well done!

Congratulations to
Milngavie, promoted from Division 3 at the end of last season and now to be promoted to Division 1 for season 2009 after winning Division 2 this year with a total of 46.5 points closely followed by West Kilbride on 45 points.

Division 3 is topped by
Williamwood and Eastwood on 52.5 points each. The rules for The Greenlees Trophy had to be consulted in order to separate the two teams and Williamwood narrowly came out on top. Disappointing for Eastwood after a very good season but both will have the pleasure of moving to Division 2 for season 2009.

Well done to all the teams who participated and for the friendly and competitive way that the matches have been played. I hope you will all look forward to season 2009.
