The season opener for our girls was a match against South of Scotland Girls played over Dunskey in Portpatrick on Sunday, 20th March 2011. In the top match Connie Jaffrey narrowly lost to Rachel Walker - both of these girls had the previous week competed in the Junior Champion of Champions where Rachel finished 3rd and Connie 6th out of a strong field. Ayrshire's points came from the second match where Mhairi McKay halved with Tara McTaggart, while newcomer to Ayrshire's team, Ali Roy from Maybole, secured a win on the last hole against the more experienced Katie Wright.
