The Harry Mulholland Memorial Trophy at Lady Alice was won by a Gourock Park Triple. Without losing
a single game in the whole event, Sanny Ballentyne, Alex Cunningham & Terry Duffy defeated a Lady Alice Triple in the Semi-Final to win a place in the six end Final against an Ardbeg triple, the score being 8 v 6 to the on-form Park trio.

Gourock Park's John Reid has been selected to play for the County Under 25's Team at the age of 13 years old. This most probably has made him the youngest ever player from Gourock Park chosen to represent Renfrewshire in the County games.  John, Son of Gourock Park's Joda Reid, was selected to play at 'lead' following three trials after being nominated by the Club.

Congratulations to Gourock Park's Stacy Lungley and Louise Watt on reaching the SBA Junior District
Semi-Finals.  Also congrats to Gourock Park's Triples on reaching the District Final.  I had hoped to have more info on the Ladies this season, but so far my 'helper' has not sent me any info!
