RESULTS - An 18 hole Gents Stableford was held on Sunday the 18th of March,
results to follow.
COMPETITIONS - Next
Sunday, the 25th, sees the Boyle round of the Holmpatrick Cup for the Gents.
This is played as a Fourball Betterball, with the winners proceeding to playing
against all the other winners in Co Roscommon, and then to provincial level if
successful. The winners in each of the 4 provinces get to play the final in St
Andrews, Scotland. The Holmpatrick is a fundraiser for the National Council for
the Blind, and marks its 85th year in 2018.
We are hosting a club fundraiser over the Easter
weekend which will be played as an 18 hole Fourball Shambles. Members are
asked to support this competition to help raise money for the works we hope to
carry out during the year.
OUTING- If there are people interested in playing in the club outing on the
14th April to St Margaret’s, we would ask them to put their names down, the
trip will be cancelled if there is insufficient interest.
THURSDAY COMPETITIONS - The mens weekly Thursday competitions will be
starting again in a few weeks. These have been a very popular competitions over
the years, usually taking the format of 9 hole competition for its first few
weeks in April and early May, then lengthening to a 12 hole as the
evenings get longer. It is a welcome sign of the approach of summer when
we see a crowd waiting around the first tee-box at 6 o'clock on a Thursday
evening.
A list for sponsoring the men’s weekly Thursday
night competitions is on the noticeboard in the clubhouse. The club asks all
men who play in this on a regular basis to consider putting their name down to
sponsor one
