The club is delighted to make a donation of much needed essential supplies to Musselburgh -> Poland/Ukraine border Supplies Drive.
Thanks to the members and Jim Campbell at Bankton and Wallyford Pharmacy for your generosity.
Rachel Eadie and her father Fraser will be taking vital donations to the Polish/Ukraine border next week, with the Musselburgh pair to take on the mammoth drive across Europe.
On Sunday 6th March, 84 players from 14 Clubs from the East Lothian Winter League met at Musselburgh Old Course to compete in the 6 player team event, where three pairs of players from each club played in a greensomes, stroke-play format over 18 holes.
The winning Club would be the one with the lowest combined total score from their three pairs.
The course was in great condition with some tricky pin positions and it was Gullane GC who came out on top, winning by a single shot from Tantallon GC.
Congratulation to both teams and many thanks to everyone who helped out at Musselburgh Old Course Golf Club throughout the day.

Yesterday, 2nd March 2022, marked the 350th Anniversary of golf first being documented as having been played on Musselburgh Old Course.
On that day, Sir John Foulis, of Ravelston, wrote :

This is believed to be the oldest game of golf ever recorded, on a course that is still in existence and actively played upon.
Many thanks to Sky Sports, Lewine Mair, Martin Dempster, Peter Bourhill and others who were here to cover our event.

While St Andrews is widely regarded as the birthplace of the sport, another course dates back to Mary Queen of Scots – and has its own claim to golfing historyπ pic.twitter.com/3KlxJQUqyV
