Defence of Mary Mckenna Perpetual Trophy set for Wednesday

The postponed defence of the Mary McKenna Perpetual Trophy necessarily re-arranged because of volcanic problems last April, is now set to be played on Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd July over Portmarnock Links, outside Dublin. For a while volcanic eruptions were the first headline in the news and television but now, it's almost a distant memory. The Scottish Vets are re-ironing the teeshirts, and adjusting the waistbands on the navy trousers all in readiness to board their aeroplanes on Tuesday. Surely nothing can go wrong this time.

The team to do the needful is slightly different in that Fiona de Vries (St Rule) and Moira Thomson (Gullane) unfortunately cannot manage to play due to work commitments. Their places have been taken by the first reserve Kathleen Sutherland(Royal Montrose) who played in the Senior Scottish Home International team last year at Newport and the vets team captain Pamela Williamson (Baberton)

Scottish Team:
Heather Anderson(Alyth)
Lorna Bennett (Ladybank)
Helen Faulds (Douglas Park)(Vice-captain)
Noreen Fenton (Dunbar)
Alex Glennie (Kilmarnock Barassie)
Mary Smith (Tain)
Kathleen Sutherland (Royal Montrose)
Pamela Williamson
(Baberton) captain

Best of luck
