Scottish Golf has announced sides for the European Senior Team Championships later this month.
The European Senior Ladies’ Team Championship takes place at Sierra GC in Poland from 30 August – 3 September, with the Men’s event being held at the same time over Diners G and CC Ljubljana in Slovenia.
The top two players on the Scottish Golf Senior Men and Women’s Orders of Merit have earned selection, along with four selectors’ picks.
The two automatic selections from the Senior Women’s Order of Merit were Sheena Wood (Aberdeen Ladies) and Alex Glennie from Kilmarnock Barassie, with Lorna Bennett captain of the team.
Last year’s Men’s Order of Merit winner, Ronnie Clark (Erskine), and Downfield’s Graham Bell secured automatic selection from the rankings, while David Gardner from Broomieknowe captains the side.
