After three rounds of qualifying for both the Club Championship and the Oliphant Trophy Handicap Championship, those who are progressing to the knockout stages have been identified and notified.

Thanks you to everyone who took part in the qualifying process. The competition for both Cups was tight and the knockout phase will be played this week before the finals day next Saturday.

The calendar for the week is as follows:

Tuesday 20th : Oliphant Trophy Last 16 from 18:00
Wednesday 21st : Championship & Oliphant Trophy Quarter Finals from 18:00
Thursday 22nd : Championship & Oliphant Trophy Semi Finals from 18:00
Friday 23rd : Senior Championship Semi Finals
Saturday 24th : Finals Day. 09:00 and 13:30 tee times for Championship Final

Please feel free to come up, watch the golf and support those who are taking part both during the week and on finals day. Hopefully the good weather stays with us for this week and we get some close ties and some good golf to watch.

With the AGM being held in the clubhouse at 4pm this Sunday we decided to hold a small competition beforehand to get us all in the golfing mood and to have a fresh look at the course before the meeting.

There are now 8 tee times set up from 12:30 to 13:40 on Sunday afternoon where you can go out and play a 9 hole stableford competition. This is open to all categories of members, gents should play from the Yellow tees and Ladies from the Red tees where they are in different places.

Helene will be on hand with steak pie or fish and chips for after the round to fuel everyone before the AGM starts at 16:00. The cost of each is £10 and there will be no entry fee to the competition itself.

If you would like to come along and join in, just book your spot in one of the ‘competition’ slots in BRS and email matchsecretary@bofagc.com  letting us know if you would like steak pie or fish and chips so that Helene can get the appropriate amount of each in.

Looking forward to seeing as many members as possible on the day – this is your club!

We had our Annual Prize Giving on Saturday night and it was a great night.

First and foremost a major “thank you” has to go to Helene and Jimmy for putting on such a lovely evening. They served us haggis, neeps and tatties and worked hard all night to make sure everyone had a good time. A big shoutout also has to go to our Match Secretary, Graeme Cameron, for all of his hard work organising the prizes and for polishing all of those trophies!

The biggest winners of the night were Scott Mackenzie and Mary Watson. Our new Club Champions! Some phenomenal play throughout the year to pip their runners up Jamie Drummond and Isabel MacFarlane at the post.

There was a massive list of trophies given out on the night and if you want the full rundown of the winners, you can go to your Club V1 app, scroll down to “Documents” and open the folder “Competition and Handicapping”. You’ll find the full list in there.

Some winners couldn’t make it on the night, they can pick up their Scottish Golf vouchers at the Clubhouse Bar.

Glad everyone enjoyed the disco and we can’t wait to do it all again next year!!
