AN HISTORIC CLUB WITH A MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN PARKLAND SETTING SINCE 1893

Victory for Kevin in Connolly Cup

KEVIN Boyd was the proud recipient of the Connolly Cup after producing the winning score in County Armagh Golf Club's annual scratch competition for 19-28 handicappers.

Mrs Pat Connolly, wife of the late Brian, in whose memory the event is played for, presented Kevin with the magnificent silverware piece in front of a packed clubhouse at the weekend.

Quite a number of members gathered in the club for the scratch cup competition's presentation and as well as joining in the celebrations, many sampled the superb cuisine being served in the Green Room Restaurant.

It was undoubtedly Kevin's best round of the year and his Gross 85 score was deserving of the his efforts, albeit wining on countback from Gerry Doyle who also returned a gross 85 score.

Gerry will no doubt reflect on what might have been ... had he not opened with a double bogey or indeed suffered the same double bogey score at the 8th hole.

P McParland claimed the Nett Prize in the competition with a nett 66.
