Having travelled to the venue straight from helping Ayrshire to second place in the Area Boys Team Championship on Sunday, Kilmarnock Barassie's Euan Walker (South Ayrshire) contined his excellent form to return a two under par total of 139, just losing out on the individual title by three shots from Daniel McConnachie (Dumfries & Galloway)

In the girls team event, the North Ayrshire duo of Connie Jaffrey and Mhairi Mckay combined for a team total of 310 to finish just two shots behind the winners, Fife, and one behind the second placed team, North Aberdeenshire.
