AYRSHIRE SCRATCH LEAGUES - Vital matches completed in Division 1

With just a few of matches still to be completed by the 31st of August, a number of significant results have been posted recently in the Ayrshire scratch leagues.

In DIVISION 1, two crucial results were posted this week. Kilmarnock barassie concluded their campaign with a 4.5 – 1.5 home win over Turnberry, which ensured Division 1 status for Barassie next season, whilst also confirming that Turnberry will finish in the play off spot this season, and will now face a two leg encounter with Largs to decide who will be in Division 1 next season.

In an extremely tight match on Friday evening at Bogside, Irvine edged out their visitors from Loudoun by 3.5 – 2.5 to end Loudoun’s hopes of retaining the Division 1 title and move to pole position in the title race themselves.

Turnberry now hold the key to the destination of the 2021 Division 1 crown as they host both the league leaders, Irvine, and second placed team, Prestwick St Cuthbert, in the final two fixtures of the campaign.
