Our Gents Winter League has now entered its 15th week. Thanks to everyone for making a great effort so far. 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. The league will be extended by two weeks until Friday 28th February instead of the 14th. To follow your teams progress, scores can be viewed weekly on the club website news section.
CARE OF THE GREENS
To maintain the quality of our greens throughout the winter, each winter league team has been assigned with responsibility for two greens. Teams are expected to repair all pitch marks on their designated greens and everyone’s cooperation will ensure the course remains in excellent condition for all players.
