Shane O Neill was the worthy winner of this year’s Captain’s Prize which was played for on September 1st. The weather was kinder to the members and despite an unpredictable wind and some tricky pin positions, Shane managed a nett 73 off a handicap of 8. Well done to him to runner up Michael Lanney. The gross was won by Frank Leonard. The golf was followed by a very enjoyable social evening with entertainment and dinner. Lady Captain Angela Reilly presented the July Medal prize, sponsored by Daniel and Angela Reilly (Abbit Trading) to Muiris Flynn. he Captain, Seán Ó Díomasaigh thanked everyone for their support during the year, in particular the Cusack family, the course staff and the hospitality staff. He paid special tribute to the members’ committee which he said “work tirelessly on behalf of the members to ensure that competitions run smoothly throughout the year, that handicaps are managed on behalf of the GUI, that sponsors are sourced and that detailed records are maintained”. Over 160 sat down to a lovely dinner followed by music, conversation and fun.
