Strathpeffer Spa Golf Club

Strath pair are teed up for glory trail

James Gordon and Andrew Mitchell of the Strathpeffer Spa Golf Club are just one step away from possible glory at the 2010 International Pairs UK Final after winning a place in the global gold competition's regional finals.

James Gordon, who plays off a handicap of 15, and six-handicapper Andrew Mitchell scored 44 Stableford points to beat off competition from 21 other pair to win their qualifying event at Strathpeffer Spa Golf Club.

The duo will now travel to Slaley Hall in September to compete for a place in the UK Final to be held at De Vere's Wychwood Park in Cheshire later that month - and the chance to qualify for the International Pairs World Final, which is being staged at The Carrick on Loch Lomond on October 6-8.

Fundraising Success

The fundraising open on Sunday 25 July attracted 80 competitors including 23 Clubgolf coaches from all over the north of Scotland. The event raised around £1000 and was won by Strathpeffer's Jamie Grant. The Strathpeffer course came in for a great deal of praise and Clubgolf Regional Manager, Millie Mackay was heard to describe the greens as "perfect". The team from Carrbridge won the Clubgolf event. The club would like to thank the members who contributed to the prize fund and raffle.

Successful Junior Introduction to Golf Day

Around 30 local boys and girls enjoyed the recent Junior Introduction To Golf Day. The Club's qualified Clubgolf coaches gave basic instruction and everybody that took part was treated to drinks and a snack before receiving a golf related gift provided by Clubgolf.

Children who took part will be invited to take part in next season's coaching program.

This season almost 30 children have enjoyed the opportunity to take part in the Club's coaching and some of the best achievers are already heading out onto the main course to gain official handicaps and take part in Junior competitions.

Watch this space in Spring 2011 for more details of the coaching program!
