Meanwhile the junior section at Ardeer Golf Club are thriving under the guidance of Paul Giffney with help through our affiliated link to Kilwinning Sports Club and PGA professional, Grant Gilmour.

The set-up is very much child-orientated and is geared up to introduce children to the game of golf in a fun and relaxed, yet challenging manner.

The junior season has now started with three levels of Sunday competitions each week. The club also run Wednesday night ‘short-game’ coaching sessions from 7pm until 8pm.

This week’s junior results are as follows:

21 players took part

18 Hole Course: Kenzie McGuire (15) 67; Luisa Gibson (15) 71

9Hole Course: McKenzie Melrose (18) 33; Dylan Nivan (22) 40

6 Hole Course: Robert McIntyre (15) 15

Well done to all those who participated.
