The Fred Daly team gave an improving performance against a strong Castlebar team on Sunday last. In an overall 5 - 2 defeat there were notable victories from Jack Healy and Matthew Golden.

Three of his charges featured in the top five of the Permanent TSB GOY, and Sam Gillivan shot an amazing 49pts in last Wednesday’s open competition. Gillivan is an early contender for the April golfer of the month.

The Gar Golden junior matchplay is well under way and competitors are requested to ensure all matches are played in time. A reminder also to the ladies that the second round of the club matchplay must be finished by April 17.

The Donie O’Connor memorial GOY takes place next Saturday and Sunday. Competitors are requested to play in three balls and the competition is scheduled to be a strokeplay event. The presentation will take place on Sunday night next.
