BOYLE GOLF CLUB RESULTS
It has
been a great few weeks for the younger golfers of the club with Lewis Shaw
winning the Strokeplay competition held on Sunday the 12th August with a
great score of 62 nett, followed this week by Ciaran Beirne who had his
first big win in the club on Sunday the 19th August, claiming
the James Shivnan Memorial Cup with an unbeatable 44 points with yet another
young golfer, Cillian Doyle, taking second place with 42 points. Well
done to all three, who will surely be hard to overlook for places on interclub
teams in 2019 if they continue to bring in such strong scores. Other prizes in
the James Shivnan Memorial competition went to Charlie O'Donnell who took the
prize for best gross score and Tom Kearney who came 3rd , continuing a recent
run of form, as he was also the winner of the 12 hole Stableford competition
held on Thursday the 16th August with 28 points, beating
Michael Simon and Lorcan Egan in to 2nd and 3rd respectively, all 3 having 28
points and separated only on "countback". We were gratified to note a
strong turnout for the competition in memory of James Shivnan and we wish to
thank all those friends of James who travelled from other clubs to take part.
