Junior Captain Bella Healy Prize Day
Bank Holiday Monday 5th August was an exciting day for all the junior golfers of Cahir Park Golf Club. Over 60 eight- to eighteen-year-olds participated in the Competitions for all the prizes of Junior Captain Bella Healy to celebrate her special Day and Year.
The Driving Range, Putting Greens and Chipping area were all showcasing the wonderful talent on display and keen competition in all the elements of golf.
On the Course, eighteen young guys challenged for the 18 Hole Singles Stableford competition prizes.
Following the very busy morning and afternoon events, Bella entertained all the participants in the Clubhouse, presenting prizes after very welcome refreshments.
Captain Don Quill, fresh from his own Captain’s Prize Weekend, congratulated Bella on her successful year, complimented all the Juniors on their Golfing talents and encouraged them to continue with a sport they will have for life.
Bella thanked everyone who supported the Day, the Parents of all the Juniors, the Club Volunteers who run the Junior training days, the Members who sponsored prizes and her parents, Diarmuid and Carrie and her brother, Luke.
Congratulations Bella and thank you for the support you provide to Juniors and to the Club.
Winner of the Juniors 18 Hole Singles Stableford competition was Ronan O’Donoghue with 40pts.
Second place went to Orán Bourke 38pts. Darragh Moloney was Third with 37pts and Danny O’Dwyer was Fourth with 36pts.
Well done Guys and congratulations to all the competitors.
