Jimmy Bruen Shield. On Saturday morning
last we travelled to Tramore to take on Faithlegg in the first round of the Jimmy Bruen Shield. The action got underway at 10.30 am. Manager Stephen Spill- ane fielded his strongest team in anticipation of a stern test from the favour- ites. Following a very tight contest our team emerged victorious.
After the soup
and sandwiches we were back in action against a very strong Williamstown team. With weather con- ditions deteriorating Ste- phen decided to freshen up his
some of
team and introduced his younger pan-
elists. After 9 holes the task looked ominous despite our players giving their all in the testing conditions. Our team rallied on the back 9 and sealed victory with wins on the 18th holes.
and 19th It was now 8.30 and
understanably there were many tired bodies as we re- turned to the clubhouse for dinner. With a fork in one hand and a phone in the other Stephen was already planning his strategy for the local derby with neigh- bours Gold Coast on Sun- day morning. Once again Stephen dug deep into his panel in forming his team for the ‘final’. Thankfully, the weather at Tramore on Sunday morning was per- fect for golf. The action began at 9a.m. Through 9 holes we were in com- mand in two matches with the other three matches still in the balance. As on Saturday the team put in a strong performance on the back 9 and with two early victories, the tie was sealed with the third win on the 19th

manager Stephen Spillane and the 18 panelists who all contributed over the three matches. We face Clonmel in the area final with the date and venue to be an- nounced.
Belvedere Trophy On Tuesday May 9th
we welcomed neighbours Dungarvan for the first leg of the
Belvedere trophy
matchplay. In ideal weath- er conditions the contest proved to be a close en- counter with matches in the balance right up to the end. We can consider our- selves lucky to come out on the right end of a 3-2 score- line. Bearing in mind that its only half time we antic- ipate a battle royale when we travel to Dungarvan for the second leg which is pro- visionally fixed for Thurs- day 18th
May. Our team
on duty last week was Pat Murray and Tomas Cur- ran, Michael Landers and Sonny Landers, Pat Power and Ollie Broderick, Denis Herlihy and Noel Murray, Pa McCarthy and Percy Walsh. Team manager Ed- ward Hickey will be taking a serious look at his panel before naming his team for the away leg.
J.B Carr Trophy Another local derby in
store as we face neighbours Dungarvan on Friday 19th May. Best of luck to man- ager Sean Wade and his team.
