Due to the untimely death of our esteemed Chairman, Dr. Tim Mahony, the Captains’ Prizes that were scheduled to take place two weeks ago were postponed until Saturday 26th July when a new timesheet will be made available and this will open on Monday 14th July at 12 noon.
In the meantime, the McCalmont Cup Matchplay has reached the quarter final stage and the following pairings have to play before the end of July; John Mulholland v Ray O’Malley, Bill Hutchinson v Andrew Nixon, Chris McHugh v Pat Price Sr., and Michael Doyle v Una O’Sullivan.
Last Wednesday saw the July Ladies Invitation Day take place and the format was a three person scramble. The scoring was very good with all the prize winners breaking the 40 points barrier. Ann Cowley had the envious distinction of scoring a hole in one at the par 3 third hole, for which she received a special prize on the day.
The July Monthly Medal will be played for next Sunday and hopefully the weather will have improved somewhat for the players. As usual, there will be three categories for the men and the ladies category
