🏌️♂️ Enda’s Captain’s Drive-In
Easter Monday saw the official start of Enda Murtagh’s captaincy with his Captain’s Drive-In. A great turnout of members came along to support the occasion, and Enda didn’t disappoint. His sigh of relief was clearly audible to all when he knocked one down the centre of the fairway!
A warm thank-you goes to the volunteers who provided food and refreshments. Best wishes to Enda for a successful and enjoyable year ahead.

🌳 Bee Tree Transformation
Our old bee tree near the 4th tee box has been beautifully repurposed into a floral feature, adding a splash of colour and creativity to the course. The project was kindly sponsored by Hilary McCrohan, and we thank her for the thoughtful contribution to our course’s charm.
