Crieff Hydro Hotel welcomed professional golfer, Gabrielle Macdonald and members of the Strathclyde Sirens netball team for special workshops. The hotel is a proud sponsor of both Gabrielle and the Sirens netball team.
Gabrielle led group golf clinics covering basic and intermediate skills. Towards the end of the session, each attendee received personalised tips from the pro golfer.
Gabrielle has been competing in the Ladies European Tour (LET) this year which has seen her travel across the world.
Members of the Strathclyde Sirens delivered two free workshops for kids, offering a taster of the sport.
Participants were taught basic netball skills incorporating a variety of fun games. The morning session was specifically for children aged nine and under and the afternoon session was open to children of all ages.
At the end of each session the children were invited to get their photos taken with players and were presented with a certificate for taking part.
Kristian Campbell, General Manager of Crieff Hydro Hotel, said: “We are a proud supporter of both Gabrielle and the Sirens and were delighted to have the opportunity to share their passion for their sports with guests and the local community through these free sessions.
“Gabrielle very kindly found time in her busy Ladies European Tour schedule to lead the golf clinics, which were a great opportunity for golf enthusiasts to learn from a pro.
“The netball sessions were a fantastic activity to help keep children entertained during the summer holidays.
“Netball is quickly becoming the fastest growing sport in Scotland, and we hope we have helped to encourage youngsters to develop a passion for the sport through these workshops.”
