Paul Lawrie Scottish schools championships
at Banchory & Inchmarlo on Monday
Young golfers from all over Scotland will be converging on Banchory on Royal Deeside today for tomorrow's Paul Lawsrie Scottish schools championship.
The Scottish schoolgirls championship will be played over 36 holes at Banchory Golf Club while the Scottish schoolboys' championship, also over two rounds, will be played over the Laird’s course at Inchmarlo Resort and Golf Club on the outskirts of Banchory.
The leading finishers in both sections will boost their claims of being selected for the schools internationals against England schools.
