On Sunday the 2nd of October, week three of the five week series, the Ayrshire A team play host to Renfrewshire at Royal Troon.
The Youths team travelled to Strathaven on Sunday the 25th of September for the corresponding fixture in the Youths League, on the back of a comprehensive win in their opening fixture the previous weekend.
Due to several regular county players being unavailable as a result of a clash with various club fixtures, several players were given the opportunity to represent their county for the first time, with Sam Crozier (West Kilbride) in particular showing his potential with a comprehensive win in his first appearance for the county side, alongside Lewis Higgins (Ardeer) who also had a winning debut.
Despite some close ties and a fighting display from all the team members, it was Lanarkshire who won the match by 5.5 - 2.5
