GENTS INVITATIONAL DAY

Sunday 6th September 2026

Bring a Mate, Free of Charge!

Gents,

Fancy having the bragging rights over your friend? The Gents Invitational Day is back on Sunday 6th September 2026 at Strathmore  — and this year, your mate plays for nothing, courtesy of the generosity of the Centre.

Vouchers and spot prizes up for grabs, so there's every reason to drag along that pal who's always promising to "come down for a game one of these days."

Once the golf's done, treat your guest to the legendary Strathmore Carvery — you might be on the hook for the food, but let's be honest, it's worth every penny.

Good golf, good banter, good club. What more do you need?

Sign-up sheet's on the noticeboard in the clubhouse — get your name (and your mate's) down. Any questions, give Captain Gavin Greig a shout or any member of the committee. (gmgreig@btinternet.com / 07707606757)
