JOHN WHITE CARPENTRY WINTER LEAGUE:
Week Six/Seven complete and nine players have now played ten games, or more, for their teams. The number of games played by each team registered at the moment is as follows: Dungarvan 97 (2 x 10), Ballinacourty 87 (1 x 10), Nire / Tourneena 89 (1 x 10), Dunhill 96 (3 x 10), Abbeyside 102 (2 x 10), Copper Coast 74 (no player has 10 games). These figures are just a snapshot at the minute. So much changes as more people get to 10 games and then aim to better their scores.
Thanks to our Captain, John White, for so generously sponsoring the Winter League again this year. All the individual scores for the league can be found on the Gold Coast Golf Club website, goldcoastgolfclub.com and are updated weekly.

As we are approaching midway in the leagues we would ask all participants to support their teams by putting in their scores whether good or bad as low scores can be eliminated after 10 rounds. At this stage, some teams are putting in a supreme effort with some ladies having completed their 10 rounds already, this shows commitment to their teams and the concept of the winter league, well done ladies!!!
Senior Alliance
Our Senior Alliance ladies took to the fairways in Tramore GC on Tuesday 3rd Dec in perfect golfing conditions and did not come home empty handed!! Our Director of Golf Irene brought home the gross prize, playing off a handicap of 7 with 28gross pts and Esther playing off a handicap of 11 came in 3rd position with 36pts, well done to you both!!
Coastal Alliance
The Coastal Alliance Christmas outing was held in West Waterford on Thursday 5 th Dec in cloudy but dry conditions with the course playing great for the time of year. The turnout was quite poor, but that did not deter those that turned up, the prizes were fabulous and Liam served up a traditional Christmas dinner including dessert, tea/coffee which was fantastic. Well done to Bridget and her committee for a great day out!!
Christmas Scramble
The annual festive scramble took place on Sunday Dec 1st in dry and sunny conditions with a large entry including our beginners and everyone having a ball. Presentation of prizes took place in the 360 Cookhouse later that evening after a sumptuous meal served by their very efficient staff. Well Done to our Lady Captain Anne and Lady Vice Captain Isobel for their organisational skills in running the entire event, a fab day ladies!!
Hole In One
On Tuesday 3rd Dec one of our ladies secured a hole in one on the 8th , well done and congrats Josephine. Enjoy!!
