Message from Lady Captain, Angela

I would like to send a very big thank you to all of the members for giving of their work and golf time last week from Wednesday morning to Saturday afternoon. I really appreciate the time and effort you gave to Knightsbrook Golf Club and the Irish Ladies Golfing Union and the 149 ladies who played matchplay from Wednesday to the finals on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

Myself and the President of the ILGU both complimented everything about Knightsbrook last week in all the speeches from the condition of the course, the staff in the golf shop, the catering staff and all the extra staff from the Hotel who were drafted in to help as there was such a crowd of players, caddies and spectators on the course and around the club. The golf club was a hive of activity and it was great to be a part of it.

Thank you to our Vice Lady Captain, Marie Gordon, Captain, John, Vice Captain, Damien and the Ladies Committee.

The hard working car parking attendants: Joe McGrane, Stephen Murray, Liam Grant, Michael O’Looney, Rodney Trenwith, Luke Doyle and Eddie Butler.

The really “extraordinary” hard working – On course Score recorders:  Gerald Reilly, Marie Gordon, Michael Leavy, Liam Grant, Stephen Murray, Rodney Trenwith and Brian Lawless.

Thank you to Jodie Coughlan, Stella McLoughlin, Michelle Harte, Elva Leavy, Mary Mahon and her daughter Jill, Grace Reilly, Gareth Reilly, Charlie O’Connor and Pierce O’Donoghue.

Thanks to all and I hope I have not left anyone out.

Once again thanks to all concerned who helped to make this event a huge success.
