Join in the fun and get into the swing of things by entering a team of three players. Your four-ball will be completed by the inclusion of one of the stars participating.

The day is a great opportunity to enjoy time with colleagues away from the office and network with other businesses, while backing the charity, Scottish Women in Sport.
A team costs £450 and for that you get an action-packed day out:
Starting at midday with a light lunch before heading out onto the course for 18 holes of golf. The round will be followed by a sumptuous buffet in the Trophy Room, during which there will be a raffle and some fabulous prizes to give away to conclude a great day out.

We look forward to seeing you on September 7th, 2017. Happy practicing!

JILLIAN FARRELL LOSES ON THE 36TH HOLE OF THE SCOTTISH GIRLS UNDER 18 FINAL
Hannah Darling, only 13, is youngest ever
winner of Scottish girls' Under-18 title
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Hannah Darling (Broomieknowe), only 13 years of age, has become of the youngest winner of the Scottish U18 girls' amateur championship.
She beat Jillian Farrell (Cardross) by 2 holes in the 36-hole final at Scotscraig Golf Club, Fife after being one up at the end of 18 holes.
Jane Connachan was 14 when she won the girls' title for the first time.
Hannah, who has three of a handicap, was one under par for the 36 holes. After being all square at the 31st, which Farrell won with a birdie 2, Darling finished with a winning birdie 2 at the 33rd, a winning eagle 3 with a chip-in at the 34th; lost the 35th to a birdie from Jillian, and then won the 36th with a birdie to her opponent's bogey.
Farrell was three over par for the 36 holes.
Darling was four up at the ninth in the first round but Farrell won the 11th, 12th and 13th to get back to one down.
The finalists combined to produce six birdies over the last seven holes of the first round, Darling birdied the 15th to go two up, Farrell birdieing the 16th to get one back. The 18th was halved in birdies.
“It’s a bit surreal at the moment, my WhatsApp is going crazy,” admitted Darling, going into third year at Lasswade High School and coached by Ian Muir.
“It’s not sunk in yet to be honest. Jillian came back at me, she was making birdies, but chipping in twice was important at both the seventh and the 16th in the second round.”
Darling, announced earlier this week as one of six Scottish girls set to journey to the Solheim Cup next month as part of ‘Project 19’, added: “You have to believe you can do it, but I’m obviously one of the youngest here so it was just about trying to do my best and how I compare with older girls.
“I only got a handicap three years ago, but I’ve been hitting plastic clubs since I was four, coming up through ClubGolf.”

In today's (Tuesday) semi-finals, Darling KO'd the leading qualifier Louise Duncan (West Kilbride) by 2 and 1, birdieing the 11th, 15th and 17th to win a match with level par figures after being two down at the turn.
Farrell beat Shannon McWilliam (Aboyne), also by 2 and 1, after winning two of the first three holes and being two up at the turn. McWilliam, who bogeyed four of the first eight holes, squared the contest with a birdie at the 10th and a par at the 12th.
But Farrell countered with a birdie 2 at the 13th to regain the lead and she went two up again with a par at the 15th. The remaining holes were halved.

West of Scotland's Louise Duncan and Jillian Farrell into Semi Finals of the Scottish Girls Amateur Championship
Top four Scottish U18 girl seeds reach Tuesday's semi-finals at Scotscraig
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
The seedings have worked out perfectly in the Scottish U18 girls championship match-play at Scotscraig Golf Club, Fife.
All four top seeds are through to tomorrow's semi-finals in which No 1 Louise Duncan (West Kilbride) plays No 4 Hannah Darling (Broomieknowe), while No 3 Shannon McWilliam (Aboyne) plays Jillian Farrell, the No 2 seed from Cardross.
In this morning's quarter-finals, McWilliam was a 6 and 5 winner over the other North-east player in the last eight, Jasmine Mackintosh (Hazlehead), the sixth seed.
Said Shannon later: "To be fair, we both didn't play our best golf! I just stuck to par golf but I have two doubles and finished two over on the 13th!"
"Getting to the semi-finals equals my best performance in this competition. That year (2016) I was beaten by Fiona Liddell, who then went on to win the Scottish girls' title."
Duncan won by 5 and 4 against Swiss-based Cameron Neilson, the No 9 qualifier, and Darling was a 3 and 1 winner over the No 5 qualifier, Kirsty Brodie (Strathmore).
Farrell was taken to the 17th by No 7 seed Molly Richmond (Strathaven) who lost by 2 and 1 after being one down through the 15th

WEST KILBRIDE'S LOUISE DUNCAN LEADS THE FIELD IN THE GIRLS AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP
In the Scottish Girls Amateur Championship - (over Drumoig and Scotscraig) there was an impressive leader with West Kilbride’s Louise Duncan setting the pace on four-under-par 69. Duncan actually fired eight birdies in a topsy-turvy round, before having to settle for -4.
Duncan leads by five from a trio of players on one over, namely Kirsty Brodie from Strathmore, Hannah Darling (Broomieknowe) and another in-form player, Jillian Farrell from Cardross.
Darling’s effort featured four birdies and an eagle on the 11th and she said: “A lot of putts dropped today which I was really happy about. To win this week would be my aim, but I just want to do as well as I can. If I play my my own game and it’s not good enough, at least I’ve tried my best.”
The top 16 progress to the knockout stages in the girls’ event, in both scratch and nett championships.

Marshals Required at the Ladies Scottish Open at Dundonald
The Ladies Scottish Open starting on the 27th July will be one of the highest profile Ladies events ever held in Scotland outside of the Majors.
With prize money trebled from last year to 1.5 million Euros and sponsored jointly by The LPGA and The LET it is expected to attract 25 of the top 30 players from these tours.
Dundonald Links was designed by Kyle Phillips who also completed the Links at Kingsbarns where the week following the Scottish the British Ladies will be held. An ideal preparation which will have a great appeal to many of the players.
Marshals are required where they will be operating in one of 9 zones covering greens and tees giving an opportunity to see the players at close hand. Ideally volunteers should be available for at least 3 playing days of the event. I have attached to this message a registration form.
Should any further information be required please contact; Alex Littlejohn The Chief Marshal alex@dts-international.com
