Gifford Golf Club

Just a quick note to update everyone on last weekends Sair Heeds competition. We had a great turn out, 49 players in total. The weather was not very New Years Day, but it was very much welcomed.

1st Kenny Paton 20 points
2nd Clive Lucas 20 points
3rd Andy Hunter 19 points

2's - Ian Bruce @ 5th

All in all from entry fees and raffle money, after winners prizes deducted, we raised £840 for the club, with minimal outlay. And I hope everyone who came along can agree that it was a great success, and only 5 months until the next ( no shorts at that one I assume ).

Thanks to all who came and those who helped on the day, very much appreciated.

Cheers

Andy

Thank you to everyone who came along to the Gents Senior Open at Gifford on the 13 July.

What a glorious day, we couldn't have wished for better weather. The course was fantastic thanks to Jamie and Coco. So many complimentary comments were received. Also, a big thank you to Laura, Andy and Drew for the super job they did today keeping everyone watered and fed and Lesley Hollis who helped out with the starting.

We hope you all enjoyed your day out and you come back next year. If you would like to enter our Gents Open on 28th August please see attached form.
