West Dunbartonshire Schools Golf Championship

That this House celebrates the launch of the inaugural West Dunbartonshire Schools Golf Championship at Dalmuir Golf Course, a landmark event that brought together 31 young people representing Clydebank High School, St. Peter the Apostle High School, Vale of Leven Academy, Dumbarton Academy, and Our Lady & St. Patrick’s High School; welcomes the establishment of this free-to-enter tournament as a powerful vehicle for breaking down historical barriers to golf, making the sport accessible to all local secondary pupils, and promoting physical health and community spirit; expresses its profound thanks to St. Peter the Apostle Maths teacher Mr. McKechnie for his exceptional work in initiating and organizing the event, whose efforts have laid the groundwork for a lasting local sporting legacy; acknowledges the individual achievements of the tournament winners, including Liam McGrogan, Anthony Scouller, Brodie Cairney, and Allan Ferguson; recognises the support provided by Dalmuir Golf Course and its community-focused approach to making golf more accessible; and looks forward to this championship growing as an annual tradition that will connect schools across West Dunbartonshire for years to come.
