Congratulations to our team for winning the Boys League for the first time since 2014. We finished level on points with Ayrshire after a narrow defeat in our final match at Clydebank & District GC on Sunday. However, a better overall winning matches ratio saw the Boys clinch the title. After winning the first 2 under 16 matches we still needed at least a half match to secure the title and with us being down in all but one of the remaining matches it was down to a nail biting finish. The vital half match was achieved with a wedge shot to a foot for a last hole birdie after the match was 3 down with 3 to play. A win in an under 18s match gave us another point.

Match results were:

Sam Somerville (Windyhill) beat Rory Inglis (Royal Troon) by 1 hole
Fergus Allan (Windyhill) beat Ryan Kennedy (Irvine) by 3 & 2
Anthony Sheridan (Windyhill) halved with Jack Broadfoot (Troon Welbeck)
Chris Clark (Windyhill) lost to Dylan Cairns (Prestwick St Nicholas) by 1 hole
Stewart Forrest (Lenzie) lost to Jack Allan (Ballochmyle) by 3 & 2
Callum Rutherford (Clober) lost to Kerr Brooks (Loudoun) by 4 & 3
Jamie McQuillan (Dullatur) beat Max Barclay (Ayr Belleisle) by 1 hole
Jack Clark (Dullatur) lost to Harvey Broadfoot (Troon Welbeck) by 6 & 5
