Portsalon Golf Club Ladies to the fore at Captain’s Day

It was a very close encounter at the top of the leaderboard with a count back required to decide the winner of the Mr. Captain Bill Cullen’s Prize to the ladies last Friday.

Emerging victorious was the ever-steady Ita Ward, with a great score of 37 points on a break of tie, in what could only be described as very challenging windy conditions, with a sprinkling of heavy rain for good measure!

Close on her heels was Deirdre O’Toole and President Mae Blaney all with 37 points. It was no surprise to see these ladies at the top of the leaderboard as they have been featuring pretty frequently this year so far!

Match results

A valiant effort was made by the Portsalon Ladies in the home leg of the Máire O’Donnell match on Sunday 29 th June against a formidable Letterkenny side. Two half matches were all that was required by the visitors to proceed to the next round, and despite a strong push by the home team, it was not to be our year.

Thanks to all the ladies who made themselves available for selection and to team Captain Iris for all the work she put into the organization of matches and the time involved is no mean feat either.

Best wishes to Team Captain Kay Kelly and her team of ladies from Letterkenny Golf Club in their next round.
