Gifford Golf Club

On 10th May Gifford Ladies played Dirleton Castle Ladies at Gifford and the match result was a draw - one win, one half and one loss. They had a lovely evening - sunshine throughout and everyone enjoyed the golf and the company.

The previous week Gifford Ladies were due to play Haddington Ladies at Haddington but had to cancel due to the weather and rain!! Hopefully that friendly can be rescheduled.

Like Kraken waking from a covid hibernation, the Gifford men came out fighting to beat the Dirleton men with 4 wins and 2 halves.
Thank you Peter for your smooth organisation, it was great start to 2021 and congratulations to all players.

What a great turnout we had yesterday for the Par 3 Competition. The weather was kind to us and a great team of volunteers ensured the day ran smoothly, hot drinks and soup were available and toilets were open. Thank you to Andy and Dotty for manning the clubhouse and Di, Jennifer, Janice, May, Sandra, Sally, Lesley, Chris and Susan for acting as starters. A big thanks also to Jamie and Colin for setting up the course which proved an interesting challenge.
