It will be a long day but a good challenge and great fun ! Here is what is on the Portpatrick website

We very much look forward to a brand new event on the Dunskey calendar - The Morrison Cup. This is a team event for Under 14's and Under 12's where teams of 3 will compete for this pretigious trophy.

At this point I understand that over 30 teams from all over Scotland and North of England have entered the competion, along with representation from the Scottish Junior Golf Tour.

The event has come to fruition thanks to the generosity of its sponsor, the Stanley Morrison Trust. The trustees are involved with the promotion and development of junior sport and we are very grateful to them for their willingness to hold such an event here at Dunskey.

The club's intention is to make this a day to remember for all those involved and we welcome back well kent and very experienced coaches including James Erskine, Dean Robertson and Kendal McQuade.

The day will again involve coaching and skills tests from 10 am, on the putting green, Par 3 Dinvin course and the practice ground. Make no mistake, there will a few tired youngsters by the end of the day
