Write a commentAnnual Golf Classic
The club held a very successful Golf Classic on Saturday in brilliant weather at Cloverhill Golf Club in Mullaghbawn. A total of almost twenty teams took part and competed for the first prize of a one night stay and play at the Slieve Russell Hotel but unfortunately at the time of going to press the winners were unknown. Some great golf was played on Saturday with good scores being recorded throughout.
All in all it was a great day’s craic with some individual stories to be told, from Tom Magill taking great delight in beating his playing partner Dicky Heaney to Conor Murphy hitting a birdie on the first hole when his tee shot hit a poor unfortunate duck.
The club would like to thank Cloverhill Golf Club for their hospitality on Saturday, to everyone who sponsored the event in any way, to all those who took part, to everyone who helped on the day and anyone who helped in any way to make it a very successful event for the club.
