Men’s Notes
On Sunday 12th of March, Enda O’Dowd new member on the 14th hole hit a high draw with a rescue wood one bounce a small roll and boom into the hole for a Hole in One!! Well done Enda and many more of them.
After 9 ½ weeks of play, Kevin ‘Jack’ Pyke floated to the top at just the right time to take the top spot of The Alan Maher Londis CYP with 34 Pts and Richie Whelan in second place with 27 Pts. The tussle for a top 6 Places was fiercely contested. The last man in on 6 Pts was Seamus Morrissey playing with Kevin ‘Jack’ Pyke and were this week’s weekly winners with a superb 33Pts. The CYP was definitely a huge success again this year in what’s considered by most as the off season for golf, the competition was really turned on with over 130 individuals entered and 107 different players getting points on the board way beyond belief and expectation!
Hopefully at this stage you have all called in to see the Alan Maher’s newly refurbished state of the art forecourt and Londis convenience store on Cashel rd. It would be great if we could all show Alan Maher our appreciation for his generosity by popping in for your fuel and grabbing a coffee on your way to work at some stage. On behalf of Clonmel Golf Club I would again like to thank Alan Maher and all his team in Londis for their support and wish them the best in 2023.
Don’t Forget Paul Tobin Butchers 15 Hole Open Singles is running from Saturday 11th of march to Friday 17th of March.
Then we kick off the 9 Hole Members only “The Hub Restaurant” Summer Series in tandem with the CYP final.

LADIES NOTES:
The inclement weather last week gave the ladies a brief rest but hopefully both the poor weather and the enforced rest will be short lived. As a result, there was no Weekly Club Competition last week.
Fixtures.
12 Hole on going Club Competition 18th March to 24th March
However, both the Easter Hamper and Spring League are ongoing until early April.
Unbelievable as it sounds, the paper lists for participants in all inter clubs’ competitions posted in the ladies’ locker rooms appears to be refusing ink! Hopefully this mystery will be solved next week when all eligible ladies will consider putting down their name to represent their club. Please Ladies…. your club needs you!
