Congratulations to the SuperValu Team, led by Stephen Molloy, who won first prize, with a score of 97!  Our very own Senior Ladies’ manager, Mark Power, saw his team come in third, with an impressive score of 93! Mark’s team won B&B at Carton house, plus a round of golf for four. Other prizes included dinner, B&B at Mount Wolesely, round of golf at the K- Club and the Heritage.

Well done to the Adult Football Committee, with great support and assistance from the club Golf Society, who ran the event like clockwork.  A word of thanks to all our sponsors, numbering in excess of 50,. A special thank you to our chief sponsor Hugh Maguire Butchers, whose involvement with supporting the club stretches back to 2005, when he supplied polo shirts to our U-14 ladies for their final! In addition to being chief sponsor, Hugh supplied the succulent steaks – one case where the reality looked exactly like the poster!

Many thanks to the ladies manning the barbecues from early evening until the last hungry golfers arrived  - take a bow Eithne Tormey, Mary O’Shaughnessy, Annette Menton, Bernie Ellis, Ali Fitzgerald, Niamh Mooney, Mary Benville, Marlinda Fitzgerald, Finola Delaney and Liz Durkan !
