This year’s Captains’ Drive-in was a first in the history of Dunfanaghy Golf Club.
Captain Bill McCallion and Lady Captain Paula McCallion are the first husband and wife to be Captains in the same year. Bill hopes that they will still be husband and wife at the end of the year!

The weather was kind and a big crowd made their way to the first tee to witness the Captains’ drives which were both long and straight.
The traditional Captains’ Drive-In scramble followed with very competitive and low scoring. The day was rounded off in the clubhouse with a tasty stew and a prize presentation.
