2025 Scottish Womens Amateur Tour
A message from Alan Tait, founder of the Scottish Womens Amateur Tour:
Some members may recall last year saw the launch of the Scottish Womens Amateur Tour, the schedule for 2025 launched last Friday and we've already had a great response. Some of Fife members took part in 2024 and by all accounts enjoyed the opportunity to play some great courses. Excitement is already building for the ’25 season and the schedule has increased to 7 x 36 hole tournaments and 7 x 18 hole events. Amazing value for money as well given the venues, with entry fees of £45 for 18 hole events and £65 for the 36 holers 😊. The leading players from the end of season order of merit will also compete in a grand final at wonderful Cabot Highlands Castle Stuart in September.
I’m doing a wee “Early Bird Christmas Offer” with a 20% discount to join the tour. This is valid until New Years Day and already many of the girls / women have taken advantage to get signed up early which is great. I’d really appreciate any support you can offer and can also find more details at www.alantaitgolf.co.uk and click on “Golf Tours”.

2024 AGM and prizegiving
The 2024 AGM and Prizegiving took place on Sunday 27th October at Ladybank Golf Club, with approximately 38 members in attendance.
The main item on this year's AGM Agenda was the proposed amalgamation of Fife County Ladies Golf Association and Fife Golf Association to create the new entity of Fife Golf.
There was a wide ranging discussion on a number of issues and concerns and it was accepted the first year would be a period of transition that would be subject to regular review.
The vote resulted in a significant majority in favour of progressing with the amalgamation.
The next step in the amalgamation process is the Fife Golfing Association (FGA) AGM, which is scheduled for Thursday 12th December.
Assuming the FGA also vote in favour of amalgamation, this will be the start of a new era for Ladies County Golf in Fife, however the intention is that most members' Golf meetings will continue in the same way and hopefully will be better attended going forward.
Below are pictures of this years prize winners (click here for the full list of prize winners), well done to all! The final picture is someone that probably all of you know, Bev Brown, who received her Lifetime membership. Congratulations Bev!
Many thanks to Ladybank Golf Club for hosting and serving a tasty lunch.
