Lothian Boys Order of Merit - Stephen Gallacher Foundation

LOTHIAN’S BOYS ORDER OF MERIT

Sponsored by 

STEPHEN GALLACHER FOUNDATION 

2011 Winner – Stuart McLaren (Bruntsfield Links)

One way of drawing yourself to the attention of the Lothian’s selector’s and the coaching committee is to perform consistently in Open tournaments particularly those qualifying for Order of Merit points.

The boys Order of Merit is operated on a three yearly rota system with approximately 12 clubs being involved each year. The qualifying events are marked on the Lothian’s fixture lists and booklet and on the website.  

The top ten players in each event score points as follows with points shared equally if there are ties –

  

Position	1st	2nd	3rd	4th	5th	6th	7th	8th	9th	10th
Points	100	85	70	60	50	40	30	20	15	10

A running total is kept and advertised at the counting events. At the end of the season the top ten players are awarded vouchers.

This year the Stephen Gallacher Foundation has also nominated the Lothians OOM as a counting event on its ‘Road to Dunbar’. Leading players will be invited to a grand final at Dunbar GC on the 30^th September 2012.  In addition the SG Foundation will be taking a note of the U15 scores (Players under 15 years of age on 1^st January 2012) and will be compiling an U15 Order of Merit which will also serve as a qualifying event in the ‘Road to Dunbar’ along with a Girls OOM. Updates on the Order of Merits will appear after each event on the Lothians website
