COUNTY JUNIOR ‘FUN’ EVENT

Twelve girls attended the ‘Fun’ event for juniors at the Playsport Centre in East Kilbride on Saturday morning.
The girls were given some fun exercises by our County PGA Professional, Lesley MacKay, being divided into groups of two or three and asked to hit various targets using different clubs each time. The helpers were thankful they were not asked to take part !
Some of the girls had already attended our ‘B’ squad coaching but asked to come back to this session. The others either had high handicaps or Club handicaps but all thoroughly enjoyed their time with Lesley. It also gave the Junior Committee the chance to see some new talent and identify girls for our next year’s coaching sessions.
The next event on the Junior calendar is the Campbell Clock being held at Whitecraigs  GC on Sunday, 4th September at 2pm. This is a Stableford competition over 18 holes, 8 holes or the short Par 3 course.
Entry forms are available on this County website and we ask all Junior Convenors to encourage their girls to enter one of the competitions.
