Derry McCarthy Captain of the Men’s Club was delighted to report that the Pilgrimage to Lahinch which was undertaken last weekend by 40 of our Member’s was once again an outstandin­g success, and the Competitio­n for the Pretty Polly Cup on Saturday was played in very benign weather conditions with brilliant sunshine pervading throughout the entire day. The winner, and only by virtue of a better back nine holes was Ger Moroney, and in second place was Donnagh Crowley, Ger proved a very popular winner and in his acceptance speech Ger, paid due credit to all those who were involved in assisting to make the outing the success that it was. Full results were as follows 1st Ger Moroney(9) 38Pts. 2nd Donnagh Crowley(8) 38 Pts. 3rd Peter O’Brien(15) 37 Pts. 4th John O’Sullivan(15) 37 Pts. 5th Barry Duggan(15) 36 Pts. 6th Tom Ashe(17) 35 Pts. 7th Jack Buckley(19) 35 Pts. 8th Neil Coffey(5) 34 Pts. F9 Pat Cussen(5) 18 Pts. B9 Ger Linehan(17) 18 Pts. By way of total contrast the Fourball Competitio­n on Friday was played in atrocious weather conditions and despite those conditions the winners with the excellent score of 39 Pts. were Pat Cussen(5) & James Ormonde(5) and the runners-up with a very creditable score of 37 Pts. were Liam O’Leary(18) & John O’Sullivan(15).

The Club’s Senior Team under Team Manager Mark Tuite had a resounding victory over the Ceann Sibeal team by a margin of 8 holes in the Kerry Shield Competitio­n over last weekend. Their Results were as follows, Peter Hannon & Ian Spillane won 2 up, James “The Rock” O’Neill & Alan MacSweeney won 6 up, and Gerry Vaughan & Donal Considine finished all-square, they will now face Castlegreg­ory in the next round. Well done to all concerned, and we wish you every success in all future Competitio­ns this season. Fixtures

The Club’s Boy’s Team due to play in the first round of the Youth’s Junior Fred Daly competitio­n on Sunday against Berehaven at Kenmare were awarded a walk-over as Berehaven were unable to field a team, they will now be taking part in the second round against Doneraile, which will be played at Kenmare on Sunday next the 15th of April and we wish them every success for their forthcomin­g tie, and throughout the season in whatever competitio­ns that they will be taking part in. Due to the continued inclement weather conditions the Competitio­n scheduled for Sunday the 8th of April was, once again, cancelled.
