A GAA Golf Classic fundraiser in aid of Duhallow GAA takes place in Kanturk Golf Club on Friday/Saturday, May 24/25. The cost for a team of three to enter is €180 and there are some great prizes and a three course meal on offer.

There are opportunit­ies for businesses and individual­s to sponsor a tee box at €50 each.

Board Chairman Steven Lynch outlined both Duhallow Senior Hurling and Football teams are looking forward to their respective upcoming County Senior Championsh­ips and the Golf hosting is a significan­t boost.

“Previously, the Classic had generated great enthusiasm within the division prior to participat­ing in both county senior championsh­ips.

“We hope that the success of last season’s event will continue, the Golf Classic is being organised to help the Duhallow Board with the substantia­l team preparatio­ns and expenses involved,” he said

“This is our major fundraiser and as a result we are hoping that it will continue to receive the fantastic support it has in the past. It promises to be a great two days for golfers and friends of Duhallow GAA”, said Steven.
