Both Captain Christine Bruce and Captain Norman Dyce would like to invite you to take part in the Captains Drive In Day on Saturday 28th March 2020. This is the traditional opening of the golfing season at Strathmore and we would like you to be a part of it. The Vice Captains team will be led by Tom & Lorraine Wallace. The Captains will “Drive In” at 10:45 and the competition will tee off on a shotgun start at 11:00. Members of the Captains Team are asked to wear something RED and the Vice Captains Team something BLUE.

The format
for the day is a 4 Ball Better Ball Stableford. The ladies will receive 1
additional stroke adjustment, then 90% of that. The gents will receive
90% of their full handicap. The ladies will play from the red tee markers
and use the red course par and stroke index. The gents may choose to play
from the white tee markers or the yellow tee markers. If they choose the
white tee markers, they will use the white course par and stroke index, and
likewise if they choose the yellow tee markers, they will use the yellow course
par and stroke index.
There are
some “spot prizes” for the day which will be nearest the pin for the ladies and
for the gents playing from the yellow markers at 6th and 13th
and the gents playing from the white markers will be the 4th and 17th
As a
fundraiser, flags will be sold from 10:00 within the clubhouse to raise funds
for both Captains Charities. The winner of the nearest the Lady Captains

A buffet for all players will be served following the golf and presentation of the prizes
