The 2009 Ayrshire Junior Golf League competitions have reached the semi final stages.
In the LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP, Largs edged out Troon Welbeck in Section A and now face Irvine Ravenspark, winners of Section B, in the semi final.
Section C winners West Kilbride were srawn to face the winners of Section D, with Loudoun progressing to the semi final from that section in controversial circumstances.
With matches remaining to be played against Loudoun at home and away, due to an earlier postponement of one of the matches, Kilbirnie advised their intention not to complete their fixtures due to lack of players. Under the rules of The League all Kilbirnies results were declared void, leaving St. Cuthbert, who had completed all their fixtures which included wins both home and away against Kilbirnie effectively penalised by eight points.
A suggestion of a play off between Loudoun and St. Cuthbert for the semi final place, which was the resolution agreed by two involved clubs in similar circumstances a few seasons previously, was not acceptable to the Loudoun representative to The League and consequently The League had no option to put Loudoun through to the semi final at the expense of Prestwick St. Cuthbert.
Semi final ties are to be played on a home and away basis over the next few weeks.
In the semi finals of the CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS competition, David McLellan (Largs) faces a home tie against the 2008 Ayrshire Boys Champion Scott Brown (Turnberry) whilst Chris Butler (Irvine Ravenspark) s at home to Adam Foley (Ayr Belleisle) in the second semi final.
In the UNDER 16 KNOCKOUT competition, Ardeer and Largs Routneburn meet in the first semi final at Ardeer whilst Kilmarnock (Barassie) play host to Ballochmyle in the other match.
