We had another great tournament over 2 days on 28th and 29th of July, and we would like to thank all of those who took part in making it another great year. We always appreciate your support for the club. We hope you enjoyed the day and will return next year.
The Weather presented a real challenge at times – especially for the later starters on the Wednesday. But most of the players managed to play through the torrent!
The golf course was in excellent condition. The feedback we received on both days was fantastic, and our thanks go to Jim, our head greenkeeper, his greens team, and our volunteers for their hard work in getting the course ready for the tournament.
Many thanks to all the bar and catering staff, for their service over the day. They provided fabulous service throughout the day, and our extended kitchen opening hours proved very popular, as did the inclusion of the breakfast roll in this year’s entry fee.
Also many thanks go out to the staff in the pro shop and the volunteers who helped with starting all the players across the 2 days. We could not put these events on without your support.
Prizes were awarded this year for the top 8 handicap scores, and for the top 3 scratch scores in each age category (where any player qualifies for a prize in both scratch and handicap, only the higher award is paid, with the smaller prize moving onto the next best player in the relevant category).
If you entered the 2s sweep, and were lucky enough to have made one, please contact the professional shop on 0131 660 1631 for details of how to redeem your prize. Callam, Lee or Jane will be happy to help you.
If you want to enjoy a return visit to Newbattle this year, we have a Senior Gents 2-man scramble on Thursday 17thh September for only £21 a head (including a breakfast roll and coffee prior to your round). There are still spaces remaining for what is a great fun day.

We held our annual open mixed greensomes on Sunday 5th July and the course was in great condition to welcome our visitors.
Some very keen scoring was on show despite the sometimes challenging conditions as we were treated to a few stiff summer showers.
Many thanks to the Green staff in their preparation of the course, to the guys in the pro shop for steeering everyone through registration, and to the Bar and catering teams for seeing all our players fed and watered before and after their games.
The Winners of our handicap trophy were an Aunt and Nephew combination who happen to be the daughter and grandson of one of Newbattle’s longest serving members – David Ramage. We asked David to join for a photo alongside winners Jean Short (Liberton) and Craig Ramage (West Linton).


And for our scratch trophy on the day, we had a Newbattle member, Fraser Jervis alongside his partner Rebecca Gregson from Cathcart Castle.

All our prize-winners will receive vouchers sent to their home clubs over the next few days – these are
