We had a fantastic day out yesterday for our monthly championship day.  Our competitions committee of Camillus Fitzpatrick, Captain Philip Mountford and Terry Fitzgerald had the event running like clockwork.  94 players started at 8.30am and the results were generated by 2.30pm.  Great work.

Again a huge thanks to the golf shop with Paul, Jose and John.  You too have it down to a fine art.  It is really much appreciated.  The bar staff as always looked after our members and guests, thank you Vanessa, Gloriam Marijose and Fina.

The golf course came in for numerous praises form every quarter.  The greens in particular were excellent and the best they have been in quite some time.  We do hope that this is the standard we can look forward to especially with the new greens due in the summer.  Enhorabuena Miguel and your team.
