Graeme - Here is a wee story about one of your Juniors at EK (I may be biased as a v proud dad!). You may remember Welshy suggested Murray look at entering the Junior Flag challenge over the summer. Where kids get 36 shots to get as far round 9 holes as possible over 6 courses. So I duly signed him up having missed the first of 8 events, so he started at EK GC. Well what a summer he had, finishing second at EK in his first event. He finished an amazing 2nd overall all out of 32 kids, many were 11yrs old, a year older than him, he only turned 10 during the summer. At 2 Events he finished the 9 holes in less than 36 shots getting to keep his flag. First one being Cathcart Castle (that old P&P track) where I believe you were recently buckled home after a half pint following club champs! Then also at final event Paisley GC. Click here to see the final results. The first 2 in each of the 4 categories got to attend Turnberry GC for a P&P fun morning, PGA coaching and then 9 holes Texas scramble on Arran Course, overall an amazing day and awesome experience to be at Turnberry, some great photos below.
