GLENBERVIE JUNIOR OPEN FOR BOYS AND GIRLS ON JULY 18

By KEN GOODWIN

The Glenbervie Junior Open is being held on Monday, July 18. There are scratch and handicap prizes for boys and girls with trophies being awarded for the best scratch score in each category.

I am particularly keen to encourage more girls to take part in the competition. Glenbervie is in great condition at present with very fast greens and being a former venue for the British Boys, Scottish Girls and Scottish Professionals’ Championship I am sure that everyone who plays in our Open will thoroughly enjoy the course. The Open is taking on an international feel with entries already from the US and Croatia. It  costs £5 to enter and anyone interested  can either download an entry form from http://www.glenberviegolfclub.com/golfClub/OpenCompetitions.asp?PageName=OpenCompetitions or e-mail me at juniors@kengoodwin.com .

The Glenbervie Open is the first event of the Falkirk Festival of Junior Golf which comprises the junior opens at four of the golf clubs in the Falkirk area. The Falkirk Golf Club Junior Open is on Wednesday 20^th July; Grangemouth Golf Club Junior Open on Thursday 21^st July and finally the Falkirk Tryst Junior Open on Friday 22^nd July. Each junior open costs £5 to enter. The Festival is open to all juniors with CONGU handicaps – they don’t have to be residents of the Falkirk area.

The Festival has its own website http://ffojg.blogspot.com and anyone who wishes to enter will find details of dates, venues etc and an on-line entry form. Starting times and results will also be shown there in the future. Players can also enter individual junior opens through the web site even if they don’t want to play in all the competitions in the Festival. Alternatively they can e-mail me their details with the opens they wish to play in.
