The older juniors played a 36-hole Medal competition, with the younger juniors playing a 9-hole competition. For some of the younger juniors it was their very first competition, therefore they were accompanied on the course by the Juniors’ organisers and other members of the Club.

The weather improved for the afternoon round, giving a warm and sunny finish to the competition.
