SUCCESSFUL WE LOVE GOLF NIGHT AT BELLEISLE GOLF CLUB

Great Turn Out at Belleisle GC

PGA Pro Richard Gordon helps with evening

Ayr Belleisle Ladies Golf club held a free come & try golf session on Thursday night. We had a fantastic turn out with over 35 women & girls attending. 

We are working with South Ayrshire Council & Scottish Golf to help get more women & girls into the game. 

Local businesses donated refreshments & everyone left with a goody bag full of information & some golfing bits & bobs. We introduced the basics and got everyone swinging a club and hitting balls. 

We plan to hold a follow up event on Friday 10th May at 6pm where we hope to introduce our new ladies to the 6 hole short course.

AYRSHIRE GIRLS SPRING SALVER PLAYED IN THE MINI BEAST FROM THE EAST !!

Spring was never in the air yesterday as the mini "beast from the east" attacked Ardeer Golf Course creating sub zero temperatures from the wind chill factor.   

It was bitterly cold so the competition was cut to 9 holes.   Luisa Gibson (Irvine Golf Club) (12) successfully defended the trophy recording a nett 37 with Cristina McCracken (Troon Ladies) (30), close behind on 39

Connie Greig and Melissa Graham shared the spoils in the Pre-handicap competition played over 6 holes.

Well done girls for braving the tough elements....you were amazing!

Thanks go to June Kerr for the photos and report

LIKE MOTHER - LIKE DAUGHTER !!

Nancy Chisholm and Jessie Donaldson at the County Jamboree at Haggs Castle Golf Club in 2014

Lindsay Chisholm

A surgeon who trekked through the snow for almost three hours to operate on a cancer patient has been called a "superwoman" by the man she treated.

Consultant surgeon Lindsey Chisholm walked eight miles from her home in the West of Glasgow to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley despite a red alert for snow.

Does this name CHISHOLM - RING A BELL  - She is the daughter of  Ayrshire’s Nancy Chisholm.

Nancy was  honoured in the Queens Birthday Honours List with the award of an M.B.E. for voluntary contribution to ladies golf in 2012

She was an Honorary Vice President of both the Ladies Golf Union and Scottish ladies' Golfing Association and  served as LGU chairman in 1997 and Scottish Ladies Golfing Association president from 2003-2007.

A lifelong member of Prestwick St Nicholas Golf Club, which she joined as a junior member, Nancy

A former Ladies Club Captain, and Club Champion of St. Nicholas ladies on no fewer than 10 occasions, Nancy held many senior positions in ladies golf at a national and international level, as well as undertaking refereeing duties at many major international amateur event

She received the M.B.E. in recognition of her many years of voluntary work on behalf of ladies golf and golfers.

In 2004, Prestwick St. Nicholas conferred Honorary Membership on Nancy in recognition of her outstanding contribution to golf in Scotland and further afield.

Nancy is also a member and past captain of West Kilbride Ladies, a club which holds her in equally high esteem as St. Nicholas for her contribution to club and country over the years.

So perhaps the saying Like Mother - Like Daughter  is a fitting saying - since it is MOTHERS DAY tomorrow !!
