Captain vs Vice Captain Annual Match. Kings Saturday March 8th.

Waiting for the fog to clear…. which it didn’t…. event to be rescheduled.

Everyone is looking forward to our Season Opener this Saturday on the Kings when the Captain’s Team takes on the vice Captain’s team in a series of friendly Four Ball Better Ball matches. Anyone can enter and you don’t even need to choose a side as you will be “randomly” teamed up by Iain Aitchison. Do get your entries in on the app asap though as we need to confirm our final numbers to Gleneagles by Tuesday evening and it might be difficult to add players after that. If you need any help or have any special requests then please contact Iain or myself. The draw will be published on here later in the week.

BREAKING NEWS: Daley and Mike have kindly offered to provide a bottle of wine for each of the fourball which makes the best stableford score - the best 2 stableford points at each hole from the fourball counts as the team score. Draw as shown below but it will no doubt change……

The first two names are in the Captain’s team, the second two are in the Vice Captain’s team. Play a 4BBB match as per normal, taking shots from the low handicap at 90%. All we need is the result. You are also playing a best 2 from 4 stableford (via the app) together with your opponents so when they win a hole its not all bad news….. you will all need to enter your scores for them to be registered so please remember to bring your phone - the scores won’t count for your handicap, just for the team score. As per our Winter rules preferred lies and reasonable gimmies are allowed.

Just to whet your appetite here is the report from last year’s event.

Results: Captain Vs Vice-Captain — Dun Whinny Golf Club

Also, our AGM is this Friday at the Hotel at 7pm with an optional meal afterwards in the Dormy. If you have not confirmed your attendance (or non attendance if you can’t make it) then please do so now so we can confirm the final numbers with Gleneagles. Remember to wear a jacket and your club tie.
