Between 8 and 12 July 2008, Murcar Links will play host to the European Girls Team Championships. Open to teams of four girls, two rounds of stroke play qualifying are followed by match play. Scotland’s team of Carly Booth, Krystle Caithness, Kelsey MacDonald and Sally Watson finished a very creditable 8th at Lausanne in 2005. With home support in 2008 the Scottish team will be sure to do well.
