Juvenile Competitions

On a lovey sunny morning we saw the 2nd week of the juvenile league, there was a lot of excitement about this league as there will be a variety of different games.

This week we held a scramble, this is a first for the juveniles and the scoring was very high and close 
Jack Kiely, Rory Mulcahy and Kyle Hackett just beat Jamie Healy, Fionn Nagle and Lewis Simms to first place on a count back and close third was Brian Kiely, Jamie Mulcahy, James O'Donnell and Connal O'Ceallaigh.

Well done lads see you next MONDAY AT 3

Mens Matchplay League  

Men’s Matchplay League

The Men’s Matchplay League, sponsored by The Shamrock Restaurant, has reached the halfway stage and it’s very close at the top of the table, with only 2 points separating the top three players. Aidan O’Rourke has edged out in front with 13 points, followed closely by Paul Healy and Declan Byrne, who both have 11 points. This league has been supported enthusiastically by all the players and the matches between the different individuals have been fiercely competitive. With another 6 rounds to go, nobody is ruled out of being the winner of this league. Due to the Inter-Club game being played on Saturday, only one round of the league, round 9, will be played this week.

The inaugural Men’s Matchplay League is now in full swing, and all the participants are enjoying the challenge.

This league has been sponsored by The Shamrock Restaurant, O’Connell St., Dungarvan, and the club is most appreciative of such a very generous gesture by this popular local restaurant.

Men’s Inter-Club Competition

Our Men’s team travel to Fermoy on Saturday, May 2^nd, to play the first round of the Men’s Inter-Club Competition where their opponents will be the team from Tipperary Hills Pitch and Putt Club. All the players on the team are eagerly looking forward to this game and, with a bit of luck, can start this year’s competition with a victory over a very capable Tipp Hills team.

Cunnigar Team: Paddy Noonan, Aidan O’Rourke, Liam Simms, Finbarr O’Rourke, Paul Healy, Michael Havens, Michael Ahearne, Paul O’Riordan, John Charles, Patsy Hackett

Hole in One

Last year we held a Hole in one competiton

 so we will continue with a prize for the most hole in ones during the club competiton season this year as it proved very popular.

There's fierce competiton already with everyone trying to get the ultimate hole in one.

To date Paul O'Riordan(4) Patsy Hackett (3), Paddy Noonan (3) Michael Ahearne, Liam Simms,  each have one each.

Breda O'Donnell (2) and Jacinta O'Mahoney (2) and Cait Mulcahy, Bridget Walshhas now has a hole in one for the womens section.

Bonus Number

Bonus number 13 the  winner this week  was Margaret Enright.

Pitch Marks

Leaving Pitch Marks when playing destroys the greens, it takes a lot of care and attention to keep them in pristine condition, so all members and green fees are asked to repair them and use the correct repairer when doing so.

Also do not use the club head to take balls out of holes on greens as this damages the hole.

If anyone has an hour or two Mondays to Fridays to spare to give a hand helping on the course you would be very welcome.

Did you know?

When you see that you are delaying the play of those coming behind, allow them to go through.
