Leinster Woman’s Trophy

Greystones won the inaugural Leinster Women’s trophy on a very windy & damp day in Baltinglass beating Malahide 4 / 2.

Malahide had won North Leinster section from group of 50 clubs and Greystones had won south section.

The team in the final was Deirdre Ahern, Marguerite Hamill, Joyce Kirwan, Amanda Lawless, Michele Knapp, Ann Clarke, Grace Dodd & Trudy Bolton with help in earlier rounds from
Ger O’Shea, Sandra Cotter & Orla Rushe.

The Caddies were Iris Haughton, Frances Twomey, Amanda Lawless, Patricia O’Sullivan, Anne Crotty & Aine O’Rourke and in earlier rounds Angela Shaw and Anne Browner.

It was a very tight and exciting match in tough conditions. With 3 wins on board, Deirdre, Joyce and Grace Greystones only needed a half to win and avoid a play off. Michele on the 18th and the match is level, no shots in that match but opponent now playing off 14 (wearing a pony tail)! Michele sank the winning putt just as our Under 15 Boys won their match and appeared at the back of the Green.

A very exciting day for Greystones Golf Club with great turn out of supporters, President John Langrell and Laura. Captains Ciara and Mark, VC Janet, Club Manager Jim Melody, Pro Davie Lewis and many more. Much appreciated by the team managed by Mary Cahill and Polly O’ Reilly
