Scottish tournament in La Sella Golf

Last weekend has has been very Scottish in La Sella Golf. On Saturday 28, we had the traditional Burns dinner, held in commemoration of the Scottish poet Robert Burns. The dinner hosted by a Scottish company, Campbell Lamont Golf brought together the british community at the Hotel Denia Marriott.

The dinner started with Scotch Broth, followed by the toast to the Haggis . The Haggis came into the Ballroom of the Marriott escorted by the team of chefs in charge of it, and showing all the guests, under the splendid sound of Scottish pipes, it began the ritual of the Haggis, chaired by the chairman Mr. John Lamont.

The rest of the menu, Beef Steak Pie, the Cranachan and British cheeses, were watered by one of the best malts in the world: Macallan. The dinner ended with the original Scottish dances.

On Sunday 29th 80 golfers played the tournament in La Sella Golf under typical conditions of pure Scotland, with a considerable wind, cold and a long and demanding course with  difficult pin positions.

Beginning with a shotgun, playing the pipes in a really Scottish and golfing atmosphere.

The winning teams were: 1 McGarcía Team, 2nd Team McShaw, 3 º McFisher team and 4 McBoyle TEAM.

The awards ceremony was with luxury sponsors, Macallan again and Restaurant Xato (La Nucia), where there was great prizes for almost all the attendees, followed by a delicious cocktail in the hole 19 of the Sella.
