GRAND FOURSOMES SEASON OPENER AT SWANSTON

 NEWS RELEASE

The 2013 season was opened by a grand foursomes match at Swanston. The Captain's team versus the Vice-captain's team. 

All sections of the club were involved. From our Juniors, Ladies, Gents' and Senior gents' sections, 76 members took part. 

Forsyth Henderson the overall club captain drove the first ball down the fairway to launch the 2013 golfing season.

The participants donated £150 towards the Scottish Golf Disability Partnership. Jocky Elliot, a member of both Swanston and SGDP, accepted the donation from Forsyth Henderson.

As a club we have invested heavily in new Toro greenkeeping equipment for the coming year. Optimism is very high as membership too is very buoyant. All we need now is for Mother Nature to give us some dry and sunny weather for the coming season.

The match this year was won by the Vice-captain's team (David Keen) by 11 matches to 8.
