You may remember that last year we were unable to hold an AGM. The Committee completed a Report and engaged with a number of members to adopt the relevant reports including the appointment of the Office Bearers. A copy of this report will soon be available the blog.

The Committee look forward to welcoming you to Gullane GC for the AGM.

The SVLGA championship was played at Blairgowrie GC, on the Lansdowne Course on Sunday, September 19th and Monday 20th. 

Representing East Vets was Karen Marshall who played herself through to the final against Elaine Moffat. Those watching were treated to an amazing display of golf. It is a pity someone had to lose but it went to the wire with Elaine winning on the 18th. 

Well done Karen.

 Friday 16th September - East v Borders Vets at Musselburgh GC 

A super day was had by all today at Musselburgh GC for the East v Borders Greensomes annual event.

From the time we all arrived for the usual pre match rolls and coffee we were looked after by all MGC staff with such care and attention.

The course was fantastic as always, both teams played some lovely golf and all matches were close .

Shot of the day award most definitely goes to Katy Gillies, hole in 1 at the 11th hole.

Congratulations Katy!

We came in and had a lovely meal and good post-match chat. 

My thanks go to all players in both teams for a great match and especially to MGC for courtesy of the

course.

Congratulations to Gilly on her win.

Our Autumn Meeting was held today at Liberton Golf Course. 

We were made very welcome by both Iain, the Pro, and the catering staff who apart from providing a great service offered the Committee, who were sitting outside, a hot water bottle as the temperature started to drop.  

The scores were good due not only to the quality of play but to the fact that the course was in fantastic condition. 

Congratulations to all the winners and a big thank you to Liberton Golf Club.
