THANK YOU!
Captain Gillian, Vice Captain June and all the Team would like to say a MASSIVE thank you for all the Renfrewshire support they had at Glenbervie at the County Finals. Whether it was good luck messages prior to and during the Finals, supporters coming for the day dressed in pink or the caddies giving up their time to guide their players round and keep them calm-they were all vital to the Team's success.
The Team gave it their all in every match as they knew that each half point added up and was vital. The pink support dotted all around the course helped so much to make sure they never gave up, even if their match was tough.
We look forward to the opportunity to defend the title next September at Kilmacolm Golf Club.
Thank you ALL again.

Kyle’s charges edged out Midlothian for the title after an exciting closing day’s play at the Stirlingshire venue, with Perth & Kinross and Dumfriesshire also contesting the three-day Finals competition.
Played in a round-robin format including foursomes and singles ties, both matches finished level on Friday, but Renfrewshire’s 5.5 – 3.5 win over Perth & Kinross on Saturday and their 6 -3 victory over Dumfriesshire today ensured they accumulated more overall points than Midlothian (16 – 11 compared to 14.5 -12.5).
In a well-contested event, first played in 1909, Renfrewshire achieved only their 10th win overall and their first since 2010 at Bothwell Castle.
With Scotland internationalist Eilidh Briggs producing four wins from four over the weekend, and backed up by her sister and fellow Kilmacolm member, Megan, Renfrewshire were in fine form.
Cochrane Castle’s Donna Jackson, a member of the winning team in 1987 and 2010, also played her part for her own personal hat-trick of triumphs, with Denise Cowan (Ranfurly Castle), Jennifer Rankine (Haggs Castle), Carol Whyte from Milngavie and Greenburn’s Liz Stewart also in the line-up.
East Renfrewshire’s Kyle said: “It was very exciting. Every match was very close and we just managed to pip Midlothian. We’ve been quite good at foursomes this week and that was important for us.
“The Briggs girls did a great job for us, as did Jennifer Rankine. We had a great mix of young and old.”
Eilidh added: “I couldn’t get a day off work on Friday, I’ve just started a new job as a PE teacher, but the team did well without me! I was 100 per cent over the weekend which was great, as I’ve not played for the County since 2014, so it was really good to come back and contribute. I was in the winning 2010 team as well, which was a duel with Midlothian too.”
Runners-up Midlothian featured Broomieknowe’s Hannah Darling, the youngest ever winner of the Scottish Girls earlier this season aged 13, and Scotland internationalist Gabrielle Macdonald (Craigielaw).

JENNIFER IS JUNIOR CHAMPION FOR THE 4TH TIME.
Captain Gillian Kyle presents Jennifer Rankine - 2017 RLCGA Junior Champion with the trophy |
The final of our Junior Championship took place this evening at a very sunny Pollok Golf Club between Jennifer Rankine (Haggs Castle) and Naimh Kinney (Erskine)
On handicaps, Jennifer was the favourite to win but Niamh played well under her handicap to be only 1 down after 9 holes-helped by a fantastic 2nd shot into the 8th to 3 inches for birdie. Jennifer won the 10th with a very good 4 at the long par 4.
Alistair Dobbie (Captain of Pollok) with Niamh, Jennifer and Gillian and out on the course |
Both had good "up and downs" for pars at the 11th then Jennifer was a little aggressive at the par 3 12th and 3 putted from the back of the green to go back to 1up. She steadied again with a comfortable 4 after Niamh missed the green at 13 so back to 2 up. Both had awkward chips at the 14th from the edge of bunkers and halved in bogeys. A great birdie let Jennifer win the 15th to go 3 up with 3 to play. 2 superb tee shots then 2 perfect pitches to the green gave Niamh a chance when Jennifer missed her 6 foot putt. But Niamh's 5 foot putt just slipped by to let Jennifer win the match 3 and 2.
It was a lovely game to watch and both girls played steady, relaxed golf in great spirit. They were assets to both their families and their clubs.
Our grateful thanks go to Pollok GC for courtesy of the course.

Some raffle prizes were left from the Beetle Drive in January and a fantastic £160 was raised for County funds today. Many thanks for your generosity.
It was certainly wet underfoot at parts but the greens and bunkers were dry so it made for a very pleasant golf day and a nice way to end this years County golf competitions.
