Mid Week Wrinkly Warriors

The level of golf has improved dramtically in the last couple of weeks with the return of our Seniors for their midweek competitions. These competitions under the supervision of Finbarr O'Reilly are a great success and a wonderful testimony to his organisational skills and motivational techniques to get such great numbers in attendance. The latest outing saw the team of Maura Tierney, Marua Hopkins, Peter Curran and Canice Hogan in first place pipping the team of ANgela O'Dwyer, Brian O'Brien, Pat Fitzpatrick and Finbarr himself. Well done all.

Ladies Breffni Shield

The Breffni Shield was started in Cavan by the late Dorrie Smyth, a low handicap golfer who had a genuine interest in promoting social golf.  It was then confined to the Cavan area but after the war it was decided to open it to many clubs.  This lasted for 20 years but then the format was changed to allow the qualifying round be held at all home clubs and the final to be held at clubs in rotation which is the present format. The winners of this year's qualifying round at Virginia Golf Club were Bernadette Daly & Maureen Donohoe with a score of 68. In 2nd place were Pauline Clarke & Martina Briody with a score of 68.5. Best of luck to the winners when they represent Virginia Golf Club in Greenore Golf Club on 16th May.
