Scottish Seniors Golfing Society season tees off at Scotscraig this week
The
Scottish Seniors Golfing Society season gets underway this week with the Spring
Open (sponsored by McCrea Financial Services) at Scotscraig on Thursday and
Friday.
Winner of
the 2014 Order of Merit title, Ian Brotherston (Dumfries and County) misses
the event to pursue the Portuguese Seniors Championship but the remainder of
last year’s successful Scottish Senior Team are present as well as the
established group of leading players.
There has been a good intake of new
members this year, several with
handicaps of scratch or better and they
will be looking to make their mark as John Fraser (Royal Burgess) defends his
title.
There is a
full field for the event with a good mix of ages and abilities and there will
also be keen interest in the net scores with a trip to Spain, courtesy of
Campbell Lamont Golf Leagues, available to the two leading net scores.
Formed in November 2006, the Scottish Seniors Golfing Society is the
brainchild of former amateur international, Gordon MacDonald. It was formed
to meet a significant demand for high level competition for senior amateur
golfers still keen to test their games at a high level. All the events take
place in a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere on good courses.There are age group prizes and separate order
of merit titles on a handicap basis and for those members over the age of 65.
Membership
of the Society is open to golfers over the age of 50 with handicaps of 9.4 or
less.
