RENFREWSHIRE COUNTY CAPTAIN JUNE HAS A HOLE IN ONE AT TROON
June has a Hole In One |
On Sunday, with RLCGA Captain June Lockhart invited to make up the 3rd player, the event took place.
Although the weather was challenging at first, it was dry for most of the round and the course was in excellent condition.
The ‘oldies’ played the ‘youngsters’ (no names need to be mentioned !) and a very competitive match ended all square, where Captain June made her first contribution at the par 3 4th with a hole-in-one !
As we were the only customers upstairs all day, it was not an expensive celebration – a typical Aberdonian.
Shirley Back, June Lockhart, Jen Mack and Isabell Donnelly |
Many thanks to President Jennifer for offering such an enjoyable prize for our Silent Auction, which included lovely eats afterwards, and thanks to Isabell and Shirley for inviting me along.
This is June's 3rd hole in one -- Many Congratulations

GREENLEES TROPHY PRESENTATION AND LUNCH
Winners Division 3 (Sylvia Muir )- Ayr Bellisle , Greenlees Champions (Annie Howie) - Troon, 2nd Division Winners (Gillian McLeod) Williamwood and West Kilbride ( Helen Craig) - Runners Up Division 1 |
This was attended by 51 ladies representing 22 clubs and 5 Clubs sent apologies.
Greenlees Secretary Maureen Mitchell (Old Ranfurly) opened the proceedings by welcoming everyone to the 78th Anniversary Year of the Greenlees Trophy.
She stated that it was unfortunate that our club members had been reduced as Cawder Golf Club had withdrawn from the league.
She took the opportunity to remind the club secretaries that their lists of players and the Greenlees fee were now due if they had not already sent them in.
She then introduced the top table guests - Pat Lunney, the Lady Captain of Cowglen, who welcomed everyone on behalf of the Club.
She then introduced Carol Fell and thanked her for setting up and keeping all the Greenlees results together and enabling everyone to be able to keep up to date with the league positions on the web.
Cowglen Golf Club Organisers -- Sue Fordyce, Moira Kerr, Pam Harvey, Pat Lunney and Pam Mather |
Next introduction was that of Cowglen's Greenlees Secretary Pam Mather who had organised the lunch arrangements.
She had a band of helpers to assist the proceedings and the tables were named after some of the holes on the course --
PLATEAU: Lanark and Lenzie

Pam said grace and the ladies were then served an excellent lunch.

After coffee was served, Maureen invited the Captain Pat to present the trophies to the winning teams.
Division 3 was won by Ayr Bellisle with Williamwood winners of Division 2.
The runners up in Division 1 were West Kilbride who were beaten by the overall winners - Troon. Troon's Greenlees Secretary, Annie Howie then made a short speech and a vote of thanks for all the hospitality received from Cowglen and thanked Maureen and her helpers for organising a very successful lunch.
Cowglen Captain Pat and "Greenlees Webmaster " Carol were presented with beautiful flower displays from the top table that Maureen had made.
Maureen then concluded by wishing everyone a safe journey home.
