I
must admit that being voted on as captain of the BLCGA came as a bit of a
surprise last night, but I will do my best to continue the good work done by
previous captains. I welcome Sharon Paterson and Elaine Brotherstone on to the committee.
As you may already know, as the Border
Ladies Junior Convenor, I have been a keen advocate for junior golf and with our
youngsters now competing on the national stage I am very optimistic for our future.
I will endeavour to bring the same
enthusiasm to my new position by encouraging our membership, both young and
old, (and all those in between!!) to participate in this game which we all love.
Last night, Gillian Oliver, presented
Isobel Massie with honorary life membership of the BLCGA, a fitting accolade
for someone who, as a previous captain and president, has been and continues to
be, one of the County’s staunchest supporters.
I look forward to seeing you all in
2014
