INTER CLUB MIXED FOURSOMES
Our Mixed Foursomes team took on Youghal last week on home course in gale force winds which didn’t deter them in securing a win over our opponents. Two matches were won on the 14th with the other two won on the 17th and 18th. There was some riveting golf played by all pairings and our ladies proved to be powerful partners.
We would like to thank the Youghal team and their managers who were wonderful and sporting opponents. Congrats to our wonderful team and managers Doc and Rosie and wishing them all the very best of luck in the next round.
INTERMEDIATE FOURSOMES
Our ladies took on Youghal once again on home territory in sunny but very windy conditions on Saturday. Nothing was given away easily as our women battled a very strong team with our first pairing in 4/3. The next two teams went to the 18th but had to concede to a stronger side.
Well done to Youghal and wishing them every success in the next leg of the tournament. Congrats to our ladies and managers who didn’t give up without a fight and played some scintillating golf, well done!!
Our team were as follows:
Elaine Nash/ Inseun Kim
Ger Hallinan/Martina Corkery
Breda Veale/ Ruth Hannigan
Bridge Walsh/Bernie Morrissey
Managers : Deirdre Ruane, Anne Keane, Michael Kavanagh.
GOLD COASTERS
With the uncertainty of the weather last Thursday, we had a small turnout, however the girls prevailed and had a very enjoyable game!!
This week it was decided to change the format of the competition to make it more interesting and the result was a Scotch Foursomes which proved to be a big favourite. Congratulations to the winning pair and well done to everyone who tried out the new format with great enthusiasm. Anne has decided that it will now be included as a monthly format!!
RESULTS : Deirdre Ruane and Ellen Foley
