EAST TEAM RETAIN THE ELISE DUNCAN TROPHY


West Team

East  Team
The Scratch S.V.L.G.A. West team played the East at West Kilbride for the Elise Duncan Trophy. The weather was fantastic and the course was in excellent condition,but the West team succumbed to the wonderful putting of the East team who were coached by Anne Brownie the East Captain who had been down at West Kilbride the week before.
Anne Brownie playing against Patricia Davidson was not even put off by a large branch falling off a tree at the first tee - she had to stop mid swing and managed to regroup and send her drive down the middle of the fairway.
The matches were all very close and the result of the match was not determined until the last game on the course finished May Hughes against Jane Herd which resulted in a draw so the East won 5 / 4.
