Castlegregory Golf Club

Castlegregory ladies had a busy Easter weekend with a great turnout both for the two competitions and the prize-giving on Easter Sunday.  Nora Keogan was the worthy winner of the Lombard Ireland sponsored Easter weekend competition with a creditable 33 points from Teresa Rice and Mary T Real in second and third place.  On Easter Monday  Kathleen Hennessey brought in an excellent 36 points in a competition sponsored by Daragh and Susan Coakley of Mallow. Kay Meade and Geraldine O’Brien took up 2^nd and 3^rd places on this occasion. 

The weekend also saw the culmination of the IMS Mortgage Solutions sponsored Easter Hamper competition which was run as a 9-hole re-entry over the last 6 weeks.  Dan O’Connor took time out to present the ever popular Merlyn O’Connor with the main hamper with a surprised Helen Besseling taking second and an even more surprised Marie McCarthy coming a very close third.  The results were as follows:

1^st Merlyn O’Connor (21)  58 pts

2^nd Helen Besseling (26) 53 pts

3^rd Marie McCarthy (20) 52 pts.

The Ladies’Club would like to thank really sincerely Dan & Con O’Connor for their very generous sponsorship of this competition. It was very much appreciated – especially this year!

Thanks also to all members for their support in the Ladies’ Club raffle of an Easter Hamper.  The very worthy winner, and a great supporter of the ladies club, was Donagh Shanahan.

All the very best to our teams who are out in force this weekend.  As all our teams are performing we are very, very short of caddies so if any kind member, male or female, has a few spare hours over the weekend they will be welcomed with open arms! The Intermediate Ladies play in Tralee at 12.00pm Saturday, the Minor in Castleisland at 12 and the Challenge in Ceann Sibeal on Sunday at 3.00pm.  If available please contact Merlyn 0879745604,  Helen 0876980119 and Marie 0863936617 respectively.
