Congratulations to the Turriff Ladies Team: Yvonne Massie, Lorna Campbell & Wendy Sleigh for winning our end of Season Tri- Am at their home club yesterday with a score of 74 Stableford points.
In 2nd place with a Score of 69 points were Emma Gray (Peterculter), Judith McCaffery & Lorna Mckenrick (Ballater)
In 3rd place with 68 points (BIH) were the Newburgh Team of Gill Williamson, Janice Moir & Lynda Carnie.
We were lucky to get a lovely warm and dry day for our last competition of the year, but unfortunately due to very heavy rain the day before the course was very wet in places which made the course long to play making it tough for everyone. Apart from that the Greens were very good and the course looked lovely and everyone seemed to enjoy their day out to Turriff Golf Club.
Many thanks to Turriff Golf Club for allowing us to Host our Tri -Am at their Club and Thanks to the Bar and catering Ladies that were kept busy the whole day and served us very well.
All Prize Vouchers will be sent out to the Clubs.
Please see link below for full results.
The pair scored 89 Gross, Net 68....
Thornton Golf Course is a relatively flat, tree-lined course, where fortunately they managed to keep their ball on the fairway - a challenge given in the windy and wet conditions.
They played steady through the back 9- paring the 13th, the longest hole on the course and one of only two Par 5's.
Coming down the 18th in heavy rain, they were fortunate to rescue a sloppy hole with a single 20ft putt, which they reckon won them the "Aussie Spoons"
Congratulations Ladies, you have done Aberdeenshire proud.
Please see Scottish golf.org for their report.
Today at Banchory Golf Club we held the Final of the "Sheena Wood Rose Bowl".
The finalists were Joanne Davidson ( Murcar Links) V Susanne Middleton (Deeside)
It was a very tight contested match with Joanne winning 1 up.
We were very fortunate to get a Glorious day after very heavy overnight rain
but the course was in great condition and both players enjoyed their game.
Many Thanks to Banchory Golf Club for giving us the Courtesy Tee time.
Winner of this years "Sheena Wood Rose bowl " Joanne Davidson ( Murcar Links)
This year, the Junior/ County Player Event was particularly challenging as the
format was a Florida Scramble, where the player whose ball was chosen
couldn’t play the next shot. Furthermore, each player had to contribute a
minimum number of drives. However, the players rose to the challenge
magnificently and the scoring round the par 68 Blairs course was tremendous.
It was lovely to see everyone play together as part of a team and each team
member surely had to make their contribution, sometimes under pressure!
Winners: Total 66 (33,33)
Sheena Wood (Aberdeen Ladies), Holly Lovie (Ballater), Rachel Duncan (Peterculter),
Penelope Dalgarno (Royal Aberdeen).
2 nd Place: Total 70 (34,36)
Fiona Campbell (McDonald Ellon), Yvy Garza (Peterculter), Beatrix Campbell (APCGA).
3 rd Place: Total 72 (35,37)
Becky Flaherty (Banchory), Joy Lovie (Ballater), Hannah Denholm (Newmachar).
A huge thanks to our County Ladies, Sheena, Fiona & Becky for coming along to lead the
teams and share their knowledge with the girls. We hope all the girls enjoyed a taste of near
par golf & feel inspired to keep working on their games.
Our sincere thanks go to Deeside Golf Club who most kindly gave us courtesy of their course and let us use their first class facilities.

Congratulations to Banchory 1,in winning the Lyon Foursomes (Inter-club Foursomes) at Deeside Golf Club by beating Aberdeen Ladies by 1 hole in an exciting final yesterday afternoon.
Both Semi -finals were good matches which saw Banchory Beat Ballater and Aberdeen Ladies beating Cullen Links,their first time competing in the Lyon Foursomes.
The course was presented in excellent condition and although the weather was very mixed for our 2 days at Deeside during the Mornings Semi Finals and the Final in the afternoon we had some very heavy rain but the course held out.
Banchory and Aberdeen Ladies both played very good golf in the final despite the conditions but Banchory just managed to keep their nose ahead and pip Aberdeen Ladies to the post by 1 hole.
It is 38 years since Banchory last won the Lyon Foursome so a great achievement indeed.
Banchory 1 therefore win the Lyon Foursomes Trophy and Aberdeen Ladies 1 are winners of the Godsman Quaich.
I must thank Deeside Golf club for hosting the event, their Green Keeping Staff for the excellent condition of the course and to their Bar and catering staff for being so accommodating.
Pictured below are the Winners, runners up and semi - finalists.
