A great result on Sunday when we qualified for the final of the Strathmore League by virtue of a 4.5/1.5 victory over Kingennie
The match was played in a very sporting manner with most matches going to the 18th to decide the result.
We now take on Kirriemuir in the final on Sunday, first tee time 13.15. We have a full squad to pick from and the team will be announced on Wednesday evening.
After a great day of golf on Captain Gary's Day where the weather stayed nice for us, the winner on the day was Brian Warrender with 40 Points (Sandy take note)
There was also £141:00 raised for Charity from the Gents, well done.
Gary would like to thank everyone for turning up and supporting him on his day today, very much appreciated.
