Falkirk Festival of Junior Golf ... for boys AND girls
By KEN GOODWIN
Glenbervie Golf Club Junior Convenor
The Falkirk Festival of Junior Golf comprises the junior opens of all the golf clubs in the Falkirk area. They are being held over 5 days - from July 19 to 23 - at Glenbervie, Bonnybridge, Polmont, Falkirk, Grangemouth and Falkirk Tryst Golf Clubs.
Although each junior open is run as a separate event, the local Rotary Clubs have sponsored the Festival to award prizes for performances over the whole week. There are handicap and scratch prizes in the 0-9 handicap, 10 -19 handicap and 20 – 28 handicap categories for boys and there is also a girls’ category with scratch and handicap prizes.
Each junior open costs £5 to enter but anyone wishing to play in a junior open on each of the 5 days only has to pay £20 – a saving of £5. The Festival is open to all juniors with CONGU handicaps – they don’t have to be residents of the Falkirk area.
The Festival has its own website http://ffojg.blogspot.com and anyone who wishes to enter will find details of dates, venues etc and an on-line entry form. Starting times and results will also be shown there in the future. Players can also enter individual junior opens through the web site even if they don’t want to play in all the competitions in the Festival.
I am organising the Glenbervie Junior Open which kicks off the Festival on Monday, July 19. There are scratch and handicap prizes for boys and girls with trophies being awarded for the best scratch score in each category. I am particularly keen to encourage more girls to play in the competition. Glenbervie is in tremendous condition at the moment and being a former venue for the British Boys, Scottish Girls and Scottish Professionals’ Championships I am sure that everyone that plays in our Open will thoroughly enjoy the course.
Its central location near Falkirk means it is easily reached from most points north, south east and west. More information can be found at http://ffojg.blogspot.com/p/glenbervie-junior-open-monday-19-july.html
