Thank you Caddies

Caddies were invited to Broomieknowe today to join Midlothian team players and officials in a fun game.



The weather was kind to us and the course was looking glorious in its autumn colours.

  Thank you to Broomieknowe for granting us coutesy of the course







 There were 5 teams of 3 competing in a TexMex Scramble that proved to be very competitive with only 4 strokes dividing the first and last places. 

Congratulations to the winning trio.

Gibson Cup

The Gibson Cup took place over the Braids last weekend in glorious sunshine . Quite a change from last year when we couldn't even see the 1st tee never mind the green.

Some of our Midlothian ladies did exceptionally well in the comp with Sue Cowie and Pam Townsend taking the Trophy beating Anne Brownie and Mary Stark at the 17th.

It was Anne Brownie's last time of organising the event on behalf of Edinburgh Leisure . I am sure there are many Midlothian players in this event who would like to join me in thanking her for all the hard work that makes this competition such a great event.

Sal Shepherd is going to be taking over from Anne. We wish her good times in the future with the running of the competition.
