FRASER EDGAR WINS EL CHAMPIONSHIP
Fraser Edgar of the Glen has won the EL Boys County Championship at a windswept but sunny Winterfield Golf Course. He scored two rounds of 70 for a 140 total which won best scratch. Fraser currently plays off 8 handicap but he beat several other lower handicap boys to record a great win. He also had the best net score of 124 but the handicap trophy was won by Callum Currie with a net 132. Scott Young won the Boys under 14 handicap trophy with a net 62 after a countback with Roddy Main. The best scratch U14 was Ben Stirling with a 75. Best Under 12s were William Ladbroke with 44 points and Thomas Neden with 42 points. The Girls Championships will be played later this year on a date TBN. The best Girls scores were Maggie Goodlad with 37 points and Joanne Free with 36 points. The CSSs were as follows:- U18 Boys AM 65, U18 Boys PM 65, U14 Boys 64, U12 Boys Stableford, 40 points (61) Girls 37 points (67). Photos will be available in the Gallery soon. The event was again generously sponsored by East Lothian Council for whom Councillor Ruth Currie presented some of the prizes. Calum Richardson, the Captain of Winterfield, was also present to present some of the prizes. All the Players and Officials were well looked after by the Staff at the Club to whom we all owe our thanks for hosting this event.

AWAY SCORES - REMINDER TO ALL PLAYERS 'PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE'
For the avoidance of doubt it is the player's responsibility to notify away scores for handicap purposes. Some clubs do it and some don't but this cannot be relied upon. We have a facility on the website to do so and the slips at the starters. The document on the SGU website under player's responsibilities explains the guidance and potential penalties for not doing so - para 8.10 et seq in particular.
So as we enter the main part of the golfing calander make sure you notify your away scores promptly and if you have competitions close together know how to estimate a reduction (or ask) and apply it. However away scores must always be notified even if you can calculate it yourself and can work out you have hit buffer.
Finally the rules are there for all and I want to make sure we always apply the highest standards at the Glen to avoid any regrets later on.

PROFESSIONAL COACHING
Coaching vouchers have been issued and some of you have already contacted Chris to arrange coaching sessions. A couple of things for the benefit of all. Chris has to travel to the Glen practice ground so it can actually be better for him if you arrange back to back sessions in twos or threes. He also has commitments professionally on Tour for his own golf and caddying for his father, often abroad, so a wee bIt more organisation and planning is required particularly as we head towards shorter days. Should you book a lesson in respective diaries and forget you will be expected to pay. The coaching scheme is provided by the members of the Glen and can only extend so far in terms of developing all our juniors. Parents may wish to consider supplementing this with further coaching sessions with Chris and should contact him directly (HIS MOBILE NUMBER IS ON THE VOUCHER FORM AND EMAIL ABOVE) should they wish to do so. Anyone who does not intend to make use of their vouchers should return them to me to enable them to be recycled to others.
Thanks
Jim
