The Paisley and District Golf League, known to most as the Newton Shield, was instigated in 1960 by Harry Burns of Elderslie G.C. to promote golf on a competitive basis for the youth of the area. Ralston was one of the original clubs and we have competed every year since. In this time we have won the Newton Shield three times, 1961 -66 -97.
