PRESENTATION OF CHEQUE TO ST. JOSEPHS’S COMMUNITY HOSPITAL
Last Friday members of the Goldcoast Golf Club, together with Anne McGrath, attended Dungarvan Community Hospital to present a cheque to Paula French, Director of Nursing, for the purpose of buying an interactive entertainment unit for the hospital.
The money was raised by the John McGrath Memorial which was held earlier this year. Patients of the hospital were present to take part in a demonstration of the new unit. What was immediately noticeable was the smiles on the faces as they engaged with the new technology.
In her remarks, Paula French expressed heartfelt thanks to the club members for their generous contributions, noting that over €18,000 had been raised in the past three years.
David O’Connor Captain Goldcoast Golf Club said how delighted the club was to be involved with this undertaking and how proud he was of the contribution to charity by the club members.
PRIZE PRESENTATION CLUB COMMUNITY CLASSIC 2024
Last night, we hosted the Prize Presentation for the 2024 Club Community Classic at the Goldcoast Hotel. We were joined on the night by our two lucky €1,000 O’Neills voucher winners—Noel Kelly from Erins Own GAA Club and Eleanor Houlihan, Principal of Tooraneena National School.
Also attending the event were our Captains, David and Elaine, along with President John, Committee members, and winners across various categories.
Congratulations to Katie Kiely, who won the Hamper in the raffle, and to Liam Clancy who took home a fourball for Doonbeg Golf Club.
The results and presentation photos will be featured in the local newspapers this week.

WINTER LEAGUE
A subcommittee, consisting of Martin Morris, Michael Wall and Johnny Hughes are assigned the task of organising the Winter League. The league section will run from Saturday October 26th, 2024, to Friday 14th February 2025. The entry cost will be €25. The Matchplay format will stay the same, in other words there will be no categorisation of handicaps when the team captains are preparing their lineup. It was recommended to the subcommittee that they ask the team captains to bring another team representative with them to the meeting of subcommittee and team captains. Team captains would be asked to stress to all their team members the importance of playing at least the minimum of 10 rounds for their team. Further information will be furnished shortly.
