The Avondhu

Thank you to all our sponsors

-

As we reach the final days of 2021, the men’s and ladies’ golf committees wish to extend their heartfelt thanks to every person and every company who supported and sponsored the game of golf in Cahir Park throughout the year.

It is recognised and acknowledg­ed by all members of the club that the last two years have been very difficult for many businesses and individual­s.

Playing golf has helped many people through tough days, whether it be the company of a friend to talk to or the frustratio­n taken out on a little white ball, the sponsorshi­p of competitio­ns and events has supported the people and the club in a manner that cannot be underestim­ated. A very sincere thank you to all sponsors and may the year ahead bring success and rewards for each and every one of you.
