Scotland Girls play in the first Junior Invitational and win

Scotland Girls from L to R: Porscha Wilson, Rachel Foster, Claire Mclaughlin, 
Ellen Caton, Carys Irvine, Katy Alexander, Megan Ashley, 
Carmen Griffiths, Cameron Neilson and Grace Crawford

Last  week a team of Girls (pictured above) played in their first Junior Invitational against other girls of similar ages from high schools in different states....Tennessee, Florida, and others. 

Scotland were asked to put together 10 Girls to make 2 teams and compete with 1 single match and two 4 ball better ball per team. 

On Day 1 Scotland combined teams won 5.5 out of 6 catapulting both teams into semi finals the following day! 

Again 2 out of 3 points for both teams saw a Scotland 1 v Scotland 2 final which was great. 

The final was played in great spirits and good golf to boot! 
Scotland 1 managed a 3 nil victory over the second team but all matches were close! 

A great few days of making friends from across the water and working together as a squad. 

Wonderful to see girls perform so well and I was most definitely a happy proud Scottish Girls Coach with the performances and attitudes they showed. 

Thanks go to Karyn Dallas (Scottish Girls Coach) for the report and photograph
