Winter League - Week 4

After four weeks the Groups could not be closer. In Group A we have three teams playing for two places - The Dan Dans, The Murphs and The Rhinos. The Murphs and the Rhinos are playing each other. In Group B we again have three teams playing for two places. McCann Cans, the Poppys and Helen's Heroes and the McCann Cans are playing The Poppys. In Group C we have the four teams in contention. Playing each other this week is the Fridge Magnets versus The Diggers and Paddy's Pirates versus the Dream Team - it will be a close one to call in this Group. In Group D we have three teams in contention. The Philipos, The Golden Oldies and Rooney's Rogues. The Philpos are playing the Golden Oldies which should be a very close fought game.

Well done ladies - we had two scalps again this week. Tracy Needham beat Christy Dobbs and Kathleen Croke beat Ray O'Brien. This week it was Danny Kilduff who had a narrow escape on the last hole against our Lady Captain Barbara Furlong. Keep up the good work ladies.

Ladies please note that weather permitting and the course being open we will have our usual Saturday 9 hole scramble at 1pm.
