Ten players turned up on a rainy morning. It was decided to play a 9 Hole Scramble with the forecast of rain. Surprisingly we completed the shortened round in the dry.

Ten players turned up to play despite the unwelcome weather forecast. Ashley assured all that there would not be any rain and we took his advise much to our regret. It has been a miserable spell of wet weather. Congratulation to Ashley on winning with 34 points have battled for the extra point on the last hole by trudging back up to the tee having not found his ball to score a point with a 7. Elizabeth, Erica and Ronnie scored 29 points, no mean feat in the conditions, Elizabeth taking second place with 14 points on the inward half.

Congratulations to Brian Duguid on winning the first Seniors league with 31 points with a better inward half 16 than Terry Haine. In third place was Ashley Turgoose with 30 points with a better inward half 16 from Erica Porteous who had a preposterous 21 points for the first half of eight holes. Prizes go to Brian & Ashley. The game was played in thick misty conditions rewarding those who hit a straight ball. The greens held the heavy dew through the whole morning.
Our AGM held in the clubhouse was attended by 15 players.
Nine players took to the field after a short shower and the 9 hole round finished as the rain started again.
Dave Aitken in a purple patch won with 20 points.

It was great to see Derek grace the fairways of New Galloway. Congratulation to Terry on winning the 2022 Roddie Hermon Cup with 31 points. He was closely followed by Brain Duguid, last years winner, and Ronnie Ritchie. It was a bright sunny September day where good scoring should have been the norm. It was the number of blobs that featured.

The match took place on Monday 26 September at Kirkcudbright on a fine day. The course was in tremendous condition and the greens fast. It was not a good day for our team as we lost 4 matches and halved 2
