East Lothian Ladies' County Golf Association

Summer Hole & Hole Final

Congratulations go to Janet Fairweather who takes the trophy this year after beating Sally Lucas in the final.

5 A - Sides - the Final report 2016

As previously reported, congratulations go to Gullane A who are the Division 1 winners again this year, which is their third win in a row.  In fact it is the second year running that they have pipped North Berwick to the title on a games won tally. I am sure North Berwick will be looking to change that next year.

In Division 2, Dunbar were the clear winners. These former Division 1 winners were obviously spurred on this year after their demotion to Division 2. They were however beaten in their final match by Kilspindie who were this year's runners up. Congratulations Dunbar on your win and promotion back to Division 1.

The Team representatives will have much to talk about at this year's AGM.  Longniddry sadly had to pull out of Division 1 this year, but on a more positive note North Berwick and Dunbar both wish to enter a B team in Division 2.  Castle Park report that they managed to field their team entirely from players who had re-joined the new Castle Park Club and they are keen to drop the  "Nomads" and continue as Castle Park next year.

There was a great turnout with 125 enthusiastic participants with a great support for the tournament from all over Scotland and further afield. The standard of play was high and the ladies taking part thoroughlyf enjoyed themselves. Grateful thanks to the Babe Zaharias committee of Liz McLelland, Gwen Stewart, Nicky Black, Barbara Gibb, Elaine Dick, Jan Gray. ELLCGA are also very grateful to Gullane Golf Club for giving courtesy of the course today, the Starters for their hard work and to Stewart Duff and his Green Committee for presenting the course in such good condition.

Babe Zaharias Competition

The decision last year to restore this ladies amateur golf competition for the Babe Zaharias Scratch and Ultraplast Handicap Trophies to a stroke play competition so far seems to have paid off.

The competition which has been held annually as a fund raiser for cancer charities since 1963 will be played for the first time on Gullane No1 on 22^nd August this year and has been oversubscribed with 20 currently on the waiting list.

Interest has really been sparked and players from 43 different clubs will be taking part. Players are coming from 4 different clubs in England as well as players from Dumfries and Galloway, the Borders, Midlothian and Fife as well as a healthy representation from most of the East Lothian clubs.

The nominated Cancer Charity this year is the Macmillan Cancer Support and the prizes have been sponsored by Principal & Prosper.

The competition will be played at Gullane again next year to mark the 70^th Anniversary of Babe Zaharias winning the British Ladies Amateur title at Gullane. Thereafter the competition will move on to another East Lothian Club.
