Ladies Summer Shield 2024
Saturday 17th August saw the 3rd edition of the annual Ladies Summer Shield, contested by a record number of ladies taking part, with defending champion Lori Darroch looking to make it a hat-trick of wins. A mainly dry afternoon saw some outstanding golf played by all the ladies on a fantastically well prepared course and full credit and thanks goes to David Clark and his greenkeeping team for this in what must have been some really difficult weather last week.
Big thank you George and Louise for the great prizes and thank you to all the staff in the Glasshouse for the afternoon gathering afterwards.
Massive well done to the eventual winner Alison Finlayson with a fabulous 21 points beating Elizabeth McConnell who finished 2nd on 18 points.
