HowDidiDo National Matchplay Championships

Andrew McMeekin will be competing in the HowDidiDo National Matchplay Championships in Scotland on Monday 11th October, after successfully winning the Northern Ireland region.

If successful in Scotland he will be heading off to Portugal for the grand finals in Vilamoura, a 5 day event to decide who is National Matchplay Champion.

We look forward to hearing the result in October.

Success Continues

Greenacres Golf Club members continue to have success in competitions as Andrew McMeekin, Paul Cowan, Bill Guest and Jonny Philips have won an all expenses paid trip to La Manga Golf Resort in Spain.

The team qualified with a score of 99 points from a field of over 45 teams at Cairndhu Golf Club to a 6 team final. They then proceed to win with a score of 86 points in the final and are now looking forward to their trip next April.

Volvo Matchplay Competition.

Gents, following our disappointment in trying to rescue the Patterson Trophy, it gives me great pleasure to inform everyone that Anthony McCullough and Brendan Delargy have successfully won their regional qualification in the Volvo Matchplay Competition. On Tuesday afternoon they defeated a 2 & 6 handicap better ball from City of Derry GC. Now they travel to Scotland for national finals. Although this is not an official GUI event it is fantastic to see 2 of our members achieving great heights. We will follow them avidly in Scotland, I’m sure.

Tee Time

Important

Due to the 36 hole Club Champion competition on Saturday 18th September 2010 there will be a big change to tee times. Please check the start sheet published in the Centre.

Also members scheduled to play after 15:26 HAVE TO find an earlier time as the Golf Centre has allocated tee times to a society. If you turn up after 15:26 you will not be able to play.
