Boys & U14 ( Mixed ) Championship Qualifying - Sunday 19th

Hi All

This Sunday sees us holding medals on No 1 and No 3. Both start at 12.00.

The No 1 medal will include the qualifying for the Boys Junior Championship and the medal on No 3 will include the qualifying for the Mixed U14 Junior Championship.

As always I would urge you all to take part. The aim of Gullane Juniors is to see as many of you as possible participating in our events and enjoying their golf at Gullane.

Please let the starters know if you intend to play so we have an idea of numbers. Or email me and I'll update them.

Look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

It would be great to see as many of you as possible turn up for this.

Afterwards there is juice/snacks in the main clubhouse.

We've had some really good numbers turning out so far this season and it would be great to see more of the same!

Morrison Trophy

Hi All,

Gullane Juniors Handicap Championship for The Morrison Trophy 2013

This is a singles match play knock-out competition (full handicap difference) to be played from  April/May until September. The trophy is open to all junior members of both Gullane Golf Club and Gullane Ladies Golf club who have a handicap.

Normally we would enter everybody with a handicap and who lives reasonably locally for this competition. However, we have realised over the last couple of years that some of you now have too many other commitments to enable you to allow the time to participate in The Morrison Trophy.

If you would like to  take part in this competition please let me know by midday on Mon 15th April in order that I can complete the draw.

It would be great to see as many as possible taking part.

Full information/rules of the competition will be sent out to those taking part on completion of the draw.

Thanks

Pamela

Winter Stableford - 4th January 2013

Happy New Year to All !

Apols for late notice but we have tee times for a Junior Winter Stableford on FRIDAY 4^th January 2013 at 11.28am on No3 ( it’s not on the 2012 card )

A great opportunity for everyone to dust down their clubs and get out for a few holes

Even if you don’t want to play in the competition please come down and play for fun, even if you don’t do 18 holes  ?  Call your pals and get them to come too. Girls particularly welcome.

Be sure to wrap up warm with waterproof, hat and gloves. The courses are in good condition, the rough is short and the greens are fantastic.

At least Pamela will be there to supervise – suggest use the Visitor’ Clubhouse to warm up after

In case of bad weather a decision will be made by 9am on Friday as to whether it is going to be on and an email sent out shortly thereafter to cancel – otherwise it is on !

Cheers !

Iain

Update - 10 playing - more welcome on the day
