Juvenile notes;
Saturdays competition was won by Conor Cheevers from Kyle Mc Garvey in second place, in the Cadet section Oisin Cannon came out on top from Ben Smyth with Andy Ward showing everybody how the 9 the holes on the putting green should be played.
Normal competitions continue for the coming weeks with a few big ones not far away, so the boys/girls should keep practising. It is hoped to get a regular girls competition started in the next few weeks.
Ryder Cup Grand Final Alert!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are now into the last week of the Four Person Team event. Make sure to give it a go as everyone will want to qualify for the final and we are running out of months. Remember you can play any day of the week in this competition.
The club would like to extend our sympathies to the Butler Family on the recent death of Peter Butler. Peter was a former captain in Dunfanaghy Golf Club (1966).
He played an important role in the running of the club in the years he was a member of the club.
