Greystones U15 squad came out second best to a very strong Malahide U-15 team in the 2021 Leinster U15 final.  Both sides place really good golf over the two 5-match legs, with Malahide proving to be the stronger side and a deserving winner.  It is worth noting that none of their squad are available for next year, whereas five of our squad will be itching to have a go once again next year, and hopefully go one step further.

A big thanks must go to the following for the effort they put in, their commitment and their togetherness and support they showed for one another:

Jamie Anderson
Milo Doyle
Dylan Holmes
Marc Lawless
Toby Murphy
Jack McGovern
William O’Riordan
and of course to Peter Anderson and Karl Holmes for their management skills.

Roll on 2022.

This Sunday at 1pm our Under 15 squad take on Malahide in the final of the Leinster U-15 .  It will be play over two weekends – with 5 matches at home on 3rd October and 5 matches away on 17th October.  All support would be very much appreciated – it promises to be an exciting afternoon of great golf.

Best wishes to:

Jamie Anderson
Milo Doyle
Dylan Holmes
Marc Lawless
Toby Murphy
Jack McGovern
William O’Riordan

This Sunday our U15 team take on Esker Hills in the semi final of the Leinster U-15.   We have 3 matches at home and 2 away, starting at 2pm.  It is likely that we will be giving shots, so we will have quite a battle on our hands – all support will be is greatly appreciated.  We wish the squad every success.

We are very pleased to be able confirm the following dates for the Junior Boys annual majors:

• 17th July: PGA Professional’s prize
• 7th August: Captain’s prize
• 28th August: President’s prize

A few points of note:

1. In order to be eligible to win a prize, you need to have played in three prior Saturday competitions
2. The entrance fee is €5 to help cover the cost of the prizes.
3. Depending in Covid restrictions of the day, it may not be possible to congregate in the club-house and if that is the case, prize giving will more than likely to have to be done outside.

We look forward to a good turnout.
