championship

Elliot Saltman (Archerfield Links) won the Edinburgh and East of Scotland Alliance championship for the Uniroyal Trophy (pictured receiving the trophy from East president Steven Doyle), and a £300 prize over the Gullane Nos 2 and 3 courses today (Wed)
Saltman had scores of 63 and 65 for an 11-under-par aggregate of 128 - two shots ahead of runner-up Duncan J Stewart (Turnhouse) who earned £250 for rounds of 68 and 62 for 130.
Lloyd Saltman (Archerfield Links) finished third on 132 with a pair of 66s. He earned £200.
Gullane's Keir McNicoll was fourth on 137 (69-68) and received a £150 pay-out.
Malcolm Pennycott (Royal Burgess) earned £100 for finishing fifth on 138 (71-67).
Duncan J Stewart (Turnhouse) posted a morning round of six-under 62 on No.3 to set the pace there followed by Gordon Law (Uphall)  on 64 with Sandy Strachan (Deer Park) and Ross Neill (Drumpellier) a shot further back on 65, writes Alan Greenshields

Strachan had a hole in one at the 186yd 13th with a five-iron.
Meanwhile on No.2 in the morning Elliot Saltman stole the show with an 8-under-par 63 (31-32) , while three shots better than brother Lloyd (36, 30). Lloyd's level par outward half of 36 included four penalty shots due to lost balls
The 33 amateurs playing had the opportunity to get their name on the Gavin Clark Trophy for the best net score over 36 holes. This proved to be a closely fought contest with three players having  lowest net aggregates of 135.
Danny Airens (Falkirk Tryst) (69-66), Donny Munro (Kingsknowe) (69-66) and David Nicolson (Craigielaw) (71-64).
The net 69s on No.2 by Airens and Munro resulted in them  sharing the trophy for the year.
