Lakewood Notes 23rd October
Saturday the diehards showed up and as the numbers worked out the game was three-ball with 2 scores to count. The Curtin Boys and Paddy Dennehy with 6 under and 20 coming off thought they had it sewn up with a nett of 82 but Billy Fitton. Kevin Crowley and Mary O’Donovan pipped them by a…

Lakewood Oct 16-2022
Sunday morning saw a small crowd venturing out and facing the elements with the strong winds and persistent rain. Some would call them Bravehearts while others would say they should be committed.

Club Outing
Mixed bag, weather wise this weekend especially for those of us who travelled to Cunnigar Pitch & Putt Course in Dungarvan on Saturday for the annual outing.

Combined Handicap Matchplay Semi-Final 2022
Wednesday saw a nice turnout for the midweek fourball which saw some very tough conditions with the hot and dry weather making the greens very fast and with the placing of some of the holes it was a very challenging event. However while some struggle others flourish which was the case as Val O’Leary, Alan…
