TABLE QUIZ NIGHT

Lady Captain Kolette and committee would like to thank all who supported the table quiz last Wednesday evening. A great night of fun was had by all and thanks to Bob O’Brien and team for running the show.

As if things weren’t exciting enough, at the end of the night there was a three-way tie for first place. After a few challenging tie breaker questions, the winning team was declared. They were Anne Heneberry, Marcella McGovern, Helen O’Neill and June Hayes.

Such was the success of the evening that plans are underfoot for another night hopefully in October/November.

SUNDAY SOCIAL SCRAMBLE
Sunday afternoon was bright and sunny and we were delighted to welcome so many to our social scramble. It is great to witness the fun and enjoyment which our golfers enjoy in these scrambles.
1st Mikey O’Dwyer, Tom Power and Lucy Frost, 2nd Martin T.Landers (Vice Captain), Noel Brennan, Patricia Butler & Aideen Hill.
Well done to all the participants and thanks for your support. Thanks also to
Liam Hansbury (our Captain) and Pat Cumisky for giving up their Sunday afternoon to run the scramble and doing the job so efficiently. The atmosphere afterwards in the clubhouse was amazing due in no small way to the hospitality provided by Tom and Chris and Kellie who play a vital role in the social element of our club. Our next Social Scramble is Sunday March 3rd with shotgun start at 3 pm. Booking is now open.

LADIES HOME ALLIANCE

PARENT CLUB AGM

Changes to Course Handicap from April 1st 2024

Course Rating Minus Par Adjustment. One of the biggest changes being made in GB&I is to the Course Handicap calculation. The Course Handicap calculation will now take into account the difference between the Course Rating and the Par of the course, so instead of playing to the Course Rating, you will be playing to Par.  If the Course Rating is higher than par, you will receive more shots. If the Course Rating is lower than par, you will receive not as many shots. New Tables showing your Course and playing handicaps will be printed and take effect from April 1st 2024 Download the Golf Ireland App and log in using your membership number and pin to keep up to date with changes. If you need to find out your pin please contact the office.
