WESTGATE WINDOWS & DOORS SPONSORED GENTS WINTER LEAGUE 2024/25
Our Gents Winter League has now entered its 12th week. Thanks to everyone for making a great effort so far.
Qualifying rounds run until Friday, February 14th 2025. Competitions are over 18 holes, daily competition fee is €8 for the first 10 rounds entered, and €5 for all additional rounds.
Players can play on any day and as many times as they like during the qualifying period. To ensure your team’s success, each player is encouraged to complete a minimum of 10 rounds. The top 10 scores from 9 players on each team will count towards the team’s overall standing. To follow your teams progress, scores can be viewed weekly on the club website news section. Hopefully the inclement weather has left us for a while which hampered the League last week.
CONGRATULATIONS
Huge congratulations to club member Darragh Power who has made an exciting move across the Irish Sea to sign with Cheltenham Town Football Club.

We had some spectacular scores returned in both the 18 and 10 hole categories, your efforts are much appreciated by your team mates.
The Willows captained by Breda Veale took the honours with a fabulous score of 707pts, closely followed by the Oaks captained by Ger Hallinan with another great score of 681pts.
Well done to everyone for a superb team effort with some spectacular results. Presentation of prizes will take place in the Moorings Restaurant on Sunday 2nd February after our ladies club annual dinner.
