Another busy week on the Team front with the Ladies Intermediate team, Mens Straffan cup team and our Mixed Team all victorious! This week our Barton Cup and Kildare Shield teams are in action and we wish them the best of luck.

Matchplay, as we all know, is to a certain extent all on the day and as always the winning and losing usually comes down to a few putts, generally inside 10 feet! So if you are working on your game for an upcoming event or match, focus on spending the bulk of your practice time inside 10 feet and when you are chipping and pitching from close range, monitor how often you get the ball inside this distance.... it will be time well spent!

Well done to Henry Wright and many thanks to everyone who contributed to the Crumlin Hospital classic on Monday. This is a long standing event and very well supported for what is a great cause. Henry was on hand all day and deserves great credit for his work so well done again to Henry and all involved!

Best of luck this week to Conor O Rourke, Jonathan Yates and Jack Hume who are all in action at the Irish Amateur Championship at The Royal Dublin Golf Club which starts on Thursday to Sunday.
