This Sunday we welcomed Lanarkshire Ladies County team to Archerfield Links to play a friendly match against members of ELLCGA Squad for the County Team.After high winds and rain on the Saturday we were very fortunate that the day was dry until the last few holes and the wind was not strong. Our visitors and team members had enjoyable matches played in good spirit and the match was a draw. We all enjoyed our warming soup and sandwiches afterwards and very grateful to Archerfield Links for giving us courtesy of the course. The results of the matches were as follows:-
Joanne Free and Lauren Lee lost to Lesley Lloyd and Alyson Hendry 3 and 2
Stacey Cameron and Keren Ward lost to Susan Wood and Susan MCGrenaghan 5 and 4
Liz Dunn Butler and Jane herd beat Kirsten Brown and Katie Scott 6 and 5
Cynthia Guthrie and Susan Penman beat Fiona Scott and Eva O'Connor 3 and 1
Thank you to everyone who took part.
Thank you to all the members who attended the ELLCGA AGM on Thursday on a miserable dark night.It was lovely to see all of those present. The meeting went smoothly and everyone enjoyed the junior report and news of our juniors from Wendy Thummamond. Elaine Dick gave the treasurer's report as Gwen was on holiday. She explained that the 100 club had been very useful although not as well supported as we had hoped. My report ran through the year's events detailing our junior success at the Cuthbertson Cup and also about our team's efforts at the Jamboree at Scotscraig. Thank yous were given to our outgoing committee members Marion Currie and Janice Reid for all their hard work. A big thank you to Liz McLelland our secretary for all her hard work over the past 3 years and a bouquet and heartfelt thanks to Carol McLeod our outgoing President.
The new committee members were voted in and delighted to welcome Eleanor Black, Linda Henderson, Francis Hall and Dorothy Thomson on to the committee. Janette Buchanan proposed Joanne Watt as her Vice president and she was also welcomed onto the committee.
The Committee had also suggested that Clara Young be proposed as an Honorary Member of East Lothian for all her representaions for County and Country and winning the Scottish Ladies Championship last year. Her mother Dawn brought the trophy and some of her medals and it was lovely to see such a beautiful trophy. Needless to say the motion was carried unanimously. A picture of the trophy is below
The Meeting then came to a close and we carried on with our prize giving. Congratulations to all our prizewinners and a photo of them is shown below. The meeting finished with Liz Dunn Butler giving a lovely vote of thanks.
