Winter Cup Finalists Decided
The final of the Sperrin Springs Winter Cup at Strabane Golf Club will be contested this year by Ciaran Duffy and Andy Connolly who will take on Michael and Aidan Baldrick in what promises to be an intriguing encounter. The rapid thaw which followed the recent snows allowed play to proceed on Sunday last on a course which was in remarkably good condition. Duffy and Connolly made it through to this year’s decider by seeing off the spirited challenge of Dermot Corry and Sean McIntyre, while Cathal McLaughlin and Noel O’Kane came up just a bit short in their match against the Baldrick’s. The date for the final, and the third and fourth place play-off, has yet to be arranged and will depend very much on the weather, given that a return to wintry conditions is forecast for the end of the week.
The recipients of the section awards from the league stages of the competition have been finalised and are as follows:
Section A
- Keith Patterson and Noel Kelly
- Brian O’Kane and Damien Carey
- Brian Kelly and Michael Neeson
Section B
- John Brolly and Niall Coulter
- Paddy O’Kane and Frankie Connolly
- Michael Forbes (Sen.) and Billy Doherty
The Leo Kavanagh Memorial “Sperrin Springs” Winter Cup Dinner will be held in the clubhouse on Saturday (December 18) and, to facilitate the preparations of the catering staff, players are asked to indicate on the sheet posted on the club notice-board whether or not they will be attending. Music will be provided by the Jim Devine Karaoke Show.
A reminder that the Annual General Meeting of the Club will be held on Wednesday of this week, December 15, commencing at 8.00pm.
Finally, the discounted ticket offer for attending the Boxing Night and New Year’s Eve celebrations is still in place. Tickets are available at the clubhouse.
Course News – Sunday 12th
The course is open – 15 holes with temporary greens.
Holes closed are 9th, 10th and 11th. So please walk from 8th green to 12th tee-box.
Winter Cup
1st to 8th will be the first nine and 12th to 18th will be second nine.
Remember – temporary greens, shots will be ½ the difference and mats to be used in the semi-rough also.
Is there a thaw ahead?
Not to get any of your hopes up, but there is a thaw forecast for the weekend, weather (see what I did there) it comes quick enough for us to play golf is another question, so fingers crossed for the weekend.
Check out the BBC for a 5-day forecast.
Winter Cup Update
Weather permitting, the Sperrin Springs Winter Cup semi-finals will be played on Saturday, December 11, with the final played on the following day. The current timesheet will operate on Sunday.
If no play is possible this coming weekend, the Winter Cup dinner will still go ahead on Saturday, December 18, at which section prizes will be presented. The semi-finals and final will then be played on dates to be arranged
