Noel Hayes R.I.P: Noel passed away last week, having braved his final illness with grace and fortitude, just as we would expect from such a fine gentleman. Not so active in Dungarvan G.C. in recent years, Noel always kept abreast of club affairs, lending words of advice when necessary. His main activity at the club over the past decade was conversation and snooker, with the occasional game of cards thrown in. Dialogue with Noel was always thought-provoking and interesting, as he dipped liberally into his fund of stories, experiences and wisdom, much of it gained while at our old home in Ballinacourty. Noel’s many friends from the F.C.A., Waterford Foods, the Bridge Clubs, golf - and many other spheres - turned out in force for the obsequies at the weekend, and Dungarvan Golf Club was well represented. We offer our sincere sympathy to his friends and extended family. Area League 2008/9 - Sponsored By Enright's Eurospar

SENIOR ALLIANCE: Considering the amount of rain which has fallen in the past week,the Alliance was fortunate that the powers that be at Callan G.C. allowed the fixture on Sunday last to go ahead.The course however and particularly the greens stood the test,and justified the decision,thus setting the stage for a plethora of good scores,some of which did not feature in the prizes.
