Ayrshire Girls' Centenary Trophy
The Ayrshire Girls' Centenary Trophy, cancelled a couple of weeks ago at Turnberry due to severe weather conditions of heavy rain and gale force winds, was played yesterday at West Kilbride on a completely contrasting day. The girls enjoyed a calm, mild, sunny afternoon, quite unique for the middle of November. Coming out on top was local girl Sarah Ramsay who finished with 38 stableford points, 2 ahead of Bethan Muir from Troon Ladies. The following prizes were awarded.

Silver Division
1st Sarah Ramsay (West Kilbride) 19 handicap 38 points
2nd Louise Duncan (West Kilbride) 8 " 31 points

Bronze Division
1st Bethan Muir (Troon Ladies) 33 handicap 36 points
2nd Samantha McKay (Loudoun) 35 " 33 points (bih)
3rd Rachel Foster (Turnberry) 23 " 33 points

The CSS was 73, the same as the SSS.

Many thanks go to June Kerr for the photos and report
