The competition takes the format of a 27 hole threeball with two scores to count with an open draw which saw Darren O’Leary, Paddy Dennehy and Catherine O’Keeffe entering the winners enclosure for the Nett and Rick O’Mahony, Pat O’Keeffe and Eileen Murphy taking the Gross.
Saturday saw Billy Fitton playing one of his better round due to the encouragement of Margaret Bowen and Josie Twomey who was the Anchor winning the Nett with a very impressive score while John O’Sullivan and Rick O’Mahony saw off the pretenders challenges ensuring that the gross stayed with the senior pairing.
