Message from Linda Urquhart - County Captain:
I would just like to pass on a Big Thank You to Banchory Golf Club for allowing us to hold our North of Scotland Ladies Championship which was played from 27th - 29th July 2026.
I was delighted when Banchory Golf Club agreed to allow Aberdeenshire Ladies County Golf Association to hold this event at my home club during my first year as County Captain.
We had a great entry of 77 players taking part from 32 different golf clubs across our 4 Counties. We attracted some of the best players and they all displayed excellent golf throughout, with the usual respect for each other and sportsmanship that we are known for.
The spectators all enjoyed the golf during the final day despite the heavy downpours where the Champion Lucy Moran (P&K) was 3 under par after 17 holes and Runner-Up Robyn Fowlie (Aberdeenshire) was 1 under. Lucy is also the Girls Champion for the 3rd time so a great achievement indeed.
I would like to thank our Head Green keeper, Mark Lawrence and his team for having the course in excellent condition. Despite the very dry conditions then heavy rain the course held up. We are so lucky to have such a lovely golf course, and it was admired by all.
Thanks to Banchory Golf Club members who gave up their tee times during the three days - that was greatly appreciated.
To Doreen Baillie and her team of bakers who served the competitors tea, coffee and lovely home bakes for two days - we appreciate the work that went into the organising of it for us all to enjoy. An incredible amount of Β£320 was collected and the amount raised during the year goes to local charities nominated by Banchory Ladies. This year the money will be shared between Archway and The Seed Box.
Thanks also to our Bar & Catering Team who served us with our food & drinks.
