Hard luck to our Girls Interclub team who bowed out at the semi final stage yesterday (3rd August) when they went down 3:1 to Blainroe. With two matches at home and two away, Jane Lumley & Emma Haugh unfortunately lost in Blainroe, Mia Walsh also lost at home but Junior Girls Captain, Isabella won her home match.
Well done to Jane Lumley who produced a great round of 43 points to win the Junior Open competition in Blainroe on Tuesday (1st August).
Congratulations to all the prize winners today in Captains Celine & John’s prizes to the Junior section. This is always a highlight of any captains’ year and today was no exception.
Declan Murray was master of ceremonies for the Junior Committee today and did a stellar job as always. Junior Captains Isabella and Jamie were on hand to call the winners and, like Declan, did a super job.
The overall winner was Dylan Cavazza who featured in Delgany during the week in the Jack Regan Open also.
Full results to follow…
Well done to John O’Boyle & Dylan Cavazza who came first and second respectively in the Jack Regan Trophy in Delgany today.

Well done to all our Junior players who took part in the Junior Event in Edmonstown today( 13th July).
Doireann Dowdall, Emma Haugh, Laura Haugh and Lilli McInerney won the girls team event, with Emma Haugh winning the individual girl’s prize with 44 points.
Bobby Sherwin, John Byrne, Conor Dignam and Elliot Nolan represented the club very well in the boys section with John Byrne continuing his excellent form of late with a second place in the individual boys event.

Well done to Emma Haugh and Jane Lumley who finished second and third respectively today in the Leinster Girls which took place at Moate Golf Club.

Well done to our Junior Sixes team who were competing in the regional qualifier in Milltown today.
Aoife Demsey & James Long played together and were out first, ahead of Jane Lumley & Emma Haugh, with John O’Boyle & Jack Daly out last for Greystones.
In really tough conditions all our team played really great today. The best two cards were counted for the team score but any two Greystones cards would have been good enough to get us through to the Leinster Finals which will take place in Portmarnock on August 21st.
Well done to all involved today.
We kicked off this year’s Wicklow Cup in amazing style with an away fixture in Dun Laoghaire golf club yesterday afternoon.
Co-managers Declan Murphy (on-course) and Declan Murray (off-course, on holidays!) fielded a mixed team of varying experience levels and our six boys and four girls delivered an incredible 5 away wins!
We got off to fast starts in all five matches and all played some brilliant golf in the scotch foresomes format. With the away team starting one-up in each match, we were never down in any match at any stage.
The final match results were:
To win all five matches away from home by the 14th is an incredible achievement! We fielded a team of eight Blues and want to give special mention to Emma Haugh and Aoife Dempsey, our two Reds who played. Aoife won Davie’s professional prize for Whites last week and will be playing her first Reds 14 hole competition today. This was Aoife’s first inter-club match and she played great golf yesterday with the experienced Marc Lawless. Well done Emma and Aoife!
We play our next match at home against Wicklow before 6 August.
Well done again guys, we are incredibly proud of you all!
