• LO ROMERO – Thursday 30th June 2022

28 players took to the course for Alfie’s Golf Society’s first round of the Eclectic Cup at Lo Romero.  It was a warm, calm morning and a breeze did appear later to keep the temperature down to a comfortable level.

Lo Romero was as usual in immaculate condition and was enjoyed by the players, some more than others.

After the President’s V Captain’s match on Sunday the 10th July, the second round of the Eclectic Cup will be played on Thursday, 28th July so there is an opportunity to improve your score in this competition.

The Blind Pairs was won by Joe Murphy and Ian Harkness, both returning their €5 cash prize to the charity fund, so thank you both for that.  Thanks also to Richard Watson, who won €20 on the football card and donated to the charity fund.  The Captain’s chosen charity is Help at Home, and the fund currently stands at €903.95.
