Captain’s Notes

Dear Members,

We’ve had two lovely Saturdays back-to-back, allowing for a very pleasant outing to Glen Mill Golf course and a very successful President’s Day.    Glen Mill is a favourite of ours and a nice group of ladies travelled to Wicklow to enjoy some very pleasant sunshine and very good golf. Indeed, there were many excellent scores and after golf we adjourned to the local where we enjoyed a bite to eat and a nice get together.  A good day was had by all.

President’s Day was rescheduled  and it was another perfect day for golf.  President Maura’s lovely prizes were on display and the committee were hard at work preparing score cards and laying out a variety of refreshments for everyone.

After golf the majority of players gathered in the Green Room for prize-giving.  Light refreshments were served while our committee beavered away marking cards.  The scores were excellent and Mary McNulty took home the President’s Prize on 38 points. Well done and thank you to everyone who took part on the day.

A special thank you to the President, Vice Captain and committee who all worked very hard to make the day a great success. (Pics coming soon!)

Upcoming Events

39 ladies from our society are travelling for the biennial holiday abroad to Alvor (Portugal) on the 2nd October.  

The Turkey Competition is due to start on the 15th October.

Don’t miss the Spooky Special on the 22nd October – there are 3 prizes in each category.

Best wishes

Dolores

Captain’s Notes

Dear  Ladies,

I’d like to remind you that President’s Day is on the 3rd September and the list remains on the notice board this Saturday for anyone who wishes to add their name for the competition and dinner in the evening at the National Yacht Club.  Two members of the committee have kindly volunteered to assist with seating arrangements for those attending the dinner.  There will be a draw for tee-times and the details will be posted on the BRS by Wednesday of next week.  Members will not be able to make any adjustments to the timesheet, so please contact me if you are unable to play.

In order to make the competition enjoyable for everyone please arrive 20 minutes before your tee-time to collect your cards and refreshments and be on the tee box 5 minutes before tee-off.  Please remember to avoid delays and keep up with the group in front of you when playing.  Please take only one practice swing before hitting the ball.  Also please be advised ,  after you tee-off in the 18 hole competition you may not change to 9 hole competition and vice versa.  I hope the sun shines and you all have a great day!

There have been queries in relation to a couple of rules recently.  I have posted details of same under Local Rules on the website which I hope you will find beneficial.

Leopardstown golf is closed for racing on 10th September,  so we have an away day to our old favourite, Glen Mill Golf Club in Wicklow.  It is a very enjoyable and challenging par 3 course, and I hope to see many of you there.  Details are on the notice board so please join us if you can!  We  will adjourn to the Mount Kennedy Inn for prize-giving and  a chat following golf.

Best wishes

Dolores
