We are deeply saddened to hear of the recent passing of past Captain Helen Cuthbertson. Helen was very passionate about her golf which showed in the positions she held.
Helen's positions included:
Border Ladies Captain 1996/97
Border Ladies President 2004-06
SLGA board 2007-11
Our thoughts are with Joyce and Helen's family at this difficult time.

Many thanks to everyone that played in our opening competition of the season. It was great to see so many couples out playing with some excellent scores coming in.
A big thank you to Catherine Renton and Linda Ovens for manning the bar and providing the cakes and tray bakes, both put in a very long shift which was greatly appreciated. Thanks to St Boswells for hosting this again, it's always good to start the season down by the river. The course was looking good for this time of the year but like all our courses the greens were crying out for rain.
Thanks also to my Committee for assisting with desk duty and providing the rolls, all money taken for the rolls has been added to the donation box, £131.78 will be going to the Margaret Kerr Unit at the BGH.
Silver
1st A Vine & R Wigmore 69
Bronze
1st L Ker & J Allan 65 (BIH from 3 couples)
There was only 5 2's with Julie Birdsall and Kirsty Baird having 2!! Each couple will receive £30 with Julie and Kirsty getting £60.
Full results have been attached, with the top 5 in both divisions in the prize money. Well done everybody.
Our next event is the Joint TexMex with the Border Seniors at Kelso on Sunday 27th April.
Great to see everybody today, hopefully see you again in a couple of weeks.

First, I would like to thank Kirsty for giving me this opportunity to be Border Ladies Captain. I have been involved with the County team for many years, made many friends and had a lot of enjoyment. I am both honoured and privileged to be leading this talented group of ladies along with my Vice-Captain Pam Cessford. Pam and I have known each other for many years, and I am delighted that she will be by my side.
Kirsty is going to be a very tough act to follow. The enthusiasm, dedication and commitment she has shown over the last 2 years has been immense. Kirsty, you should be super proud of your achievements these last 2 years, you have been a great Captain, I only hope I can uphold your high standards.
Kirsty
