We hosted our second major of the year, Davie’s Professional Prize for the Juniors, today. We had 71 boys and girls playing (possibly a new record?) and there was a great evening in the clubhouse after for the prizegiving.

Our Mens Captain, and former Junior Convenor, Mark McAleer was on hand to introduce Davie and our Junior Boys Captain, Dylan Holmes, to call out the results and present the prizes. The overall winner was Ruadhán Murray with 38 points / 71 gross, beating Jane Lumley on countback. Well done Ruadhán on a great score. The gross prize was won by Will O’Riordan who topped off a great week having also won the Wicklow Boys on Tuesday!

Well done to all of our prize winners and our category winners – James Ward in Reds, Ava Melody in Whites and Sean Hughes in 7Ups.

A big thank you to Davie who gives so much time to our Juniors, and also to Ben and Keith. The year round coaching which they provide is evident to see in the progress all of the boys and girls are making. Thank you also Ali, Liz, Olivia and Holly for feeding everybody, and Paul, Áine and the team behind the bar.

Also thank you to all of our starters and card markers today – we can only run weekly competitions for the Juniors with the help of parents!

Best of luck this week to Karl, Pete, Michael and all of the Fred Daly panel – Dylan Holmes, Jamie Anderson, Will O’Riordan, Toby Murphy, Jack McGovern, Milo Doyle, Ruadhán Murray and Marc Lawless – who play Edenderry in the All-Ireland quarter final on Tuesday in Warrenpoint GC. The whole club is behind you guys!

And finally, best of luck to Shauna, Isabella, Toby and Ruadhán who play the final round of inter-provincial matches for the Leinster U18, U16 and U14 teams this week in Roscrea. Play well guys!
