Benny grabs ace but still upstaged

Wednesday February 03 2010

THE last of the sweep competitions saw play delayed until 11-30 due to the frost but it still attracted a good crowd, especially given the rich pickings that were won last week.

The drinks were on Armagh All-Ireland winning goalkeeper Benny Tierney following his hole in one at the 140 yard par 3 fourth.

Benny the sweep winner two weeks ago, was upstaged this time by his brother-in-law Declan who took the honours for the second week in a row with 29 points.

Benny was second with 27, one ahead of Ollie Reel with Jim McKay back in fourth spot.

The sheet for the individual and team Spring League is posted in the clubhouse.

The began on Monday and will run for 5 weeks. The best three cards out of 5 will count in the individual league and the best three scores each week of the 5 person team will count in the team event.

The Seniors scramble saw Noel Magill, Vincie Gorman and Fr Cullen finish a fraction in front of club captain Charlie O'Hare, Jim McDonnell and Noel Williams.

The rumble resulted in a tie and a decision to split the winnings between the team of Gerry McShane, Fr Cullen and Anthony Murphy with that of Vincie Gorman, Charlie O'Hare and Jim McDonnell.

This Thursday is a singles stableford competition.

The Seniors Spring League will commence on Thursday, February 11 and will run for 5 weeks with the best four cards to count.

There will be a fundraising Poker Classic on Saturday next with a 4.30pm start.
