The Spring Meeting held at Musselburgh Golf Club on 8th April 2019

The Spring Meeting was held today at Musselburgh Golf Club. After the miserable weather experienced over the last few days it was great to have a dry day, albeit a little cold. The course was playing long, the greens tricky and the bunkers proved more than a little challenging ruining a few cards! 

It was great to see a few new Vet members playing today. 

Many thanks to the staff at Musselburgh GC for their warm welcome and attention whilst they are going through their refurbishments.

Thanks to the committee members for making the day run smoothly and especially Dulcie for dealing with the late withdrawals.

Coffee Morning & Fun Quiz at Glencorse GC 18th February 2019


The new season for 2019 got off to a great start at Glencorse GC today where we received a very warm welcome and excellent hospitality from David, Billy and their team. Around 50 members attended our annual Coffee Morning & Fun Quiz and enjoyed the delicious spread of homemade scones and cakes. 

It was a fun morning catching up with friends old and new as well as welcoming 4 of our new members : Kate Currie, Margaret Goldberg, Diane Moncrieff and Susan Randall. We look forward to seeing you at our events and fixtures throughout the year.

9 teams took part in the Fun Quiz with team CARNOUSTIE winning by a good margin. Well done to Clare Bowe, Anne Brownie, Liz Edwards, Val Hallam and Moyra Statham who achieved 32 out of 37 possible points.(I must make the Rules Questions even harder next year!)

Thanks also goes to Cliff the Professional who offered our members some great bargains of 50% off bags, clubs, shoes etc from the Pro Shop.
