2025 | Welcome to SUGS

Unfortunately the fantastic spring weather experienced for most of May did not include the 25th! A few short showers did put a little dampener on the day, but were soon forgotten in the clubhouse after golf where all present (including honorary 4 legged SUGS - Polly Greenshields and Ruby Biggart) enjoyed a post match BBQ. To cap the day off, President Watt gave a brief rendition of "The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen" as a tribute to his team's win over Celtic in the Scottish Cup the previous day! Another enjoyable day.

Midlothian County Ladies Golf Association - Gullane No 2 & 3 - Friday 30 May 2025

Keen interest from both sides resulted in a 10-a-side match for the first time in several years, with play over Gullane No 2 and No 3 to bring the finishing times closer together. Sadly from the SUGS perspective this change did not result in a win, and MCLGA emerged comfortable winners, with McLeish and Hammond
