15 girls arrived at Mearns Castle Golf Academy this afternoon after a day of persistent heavy rain. Ever optimistic, Captain Gillian and her team persuaded them all to warm up on the range and be ready on the 1st tee as it was going to dry up-and it did!
They all played a 'Flag Competition' according to their handicaps or age. The 'Handicap' group received 36 shots plus half their handicap and had to put their flag in the ground when they had run out of shots. The others were split into age groups and played off the blue tees and all had 36 shots. Again stopping when they had run out of shots.
Many thanks go to Mearns Castle Golf Academy for courtesy of the course and the range balls for warming up.
