Claire MacTaggart

 The Border Ladies were deeply saddened to hear of the death of past captain Claire Mactaggart, who sadly lost her battle with MND.


Claire, despite not being a golfer herself, took on the role of Captain during season 2019/20 at a time when we were struggling to find a Captain.  This speaks volumes of Claire as a person, with her totally embracing the role and always with a smile on her face.
We will forever be grateful to Claire for all the support she gave the Border Ladies over the years along with her husband Stuart.

Our heartfelt condolences go to Stuart, Tara, Gina and all the family ❤️

BLCGA Championship - Kelso 16/17th August

 This weekend sees our Championship taking place at Kelso GC on Sat 16th and Sun 17th Aug.

The first round kicks off at 08.40am on Saturday with the qualifiers all vying for a place in the quarter finals at 1pm.
Sunday is the Semi Finals at 9am with the winners competing in the Final at 1pm.
Can anyone stop Leanne Wilson winning her 3rd Championship on the trot on home soil?

The Bronze Championship also takes place on Sunday with the ladies teeing off from 9.30 and playing a Stableford. Defending Champion Fiona Melrose is in the draw looking to take the silverware home again.

Light snacks will be available on the day in the clubhouse.

It would be great to see people out to support the players over the course of the 2 days, with a high standard of golf sure to be on display.

Leanne and Fiona please remember and bring the trophies back at the weekend.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the weekend, battling it out to become the respective Champions. Good luck to all competitiors.
