There was a great turn out for this competition with 66 ladies competing in the main competition and a further 6 entries for the 9-hole comp. In Division 2 our runner-up was our very own Lady Captain. She was just beaten Margaret Simons who won Division 2 with a score of 38 points.
In Division 1 the runner-up was Alex Forbes who was just beaten by Barbara Boyd who took the prizes for Division 1 that day. Gill Ditchburn won 9-hole comp scoring 15 points. The following Saturday 4th October came the turn of the men and finals weekend.
