With England at one stage looking to be on the verge of World Cup glory in Russia, and our last drop of rain seemingly having fallen way back in 1966, it has felt at times recently as though we are living in some sort of parallel universe. County Armagh Golf Club has at least attempted to retain a small grip on normality in these heady last few weeks, though, with the completion of some refreshingly sane and workaday events that have since been ticked off its 2018 fixture list.

While the Three Lions have actually now racked up 52 years of hurt, Calum Connell rarely has to endure more than 10 days of hurt, such is the remarkable regularity with which he features among the prizes at CAGC. The talented schoolboy's latest winning display arrived on Sunday 1 July, when he topped the pile in a Club Stableford competition. Calum's superb gross 73 incorporated birdies at the 12th and 15th and, most pleasingly, represented the lowest round of his embryonic career.

The massive 41 points that it yielded also left young Connell a full five strokes ahead of the chasing pack. That group was headed up by overall runner-up, Bill Knipe, who birdied the 4th and reeled off three consecutive back-nine pars on his way to a fine 36-point return.

The 18th hole at County Armagh Golf Club: par 4, index 6, Cathedrals.

A recent round-of-16 clash between County Armagh Golf Club and Ballybofey and Stranorlar saw Marty Daly's increasingly confident charges seal a spot in the Ulster Cup quarter-finals.

The first leg was contested in an oppressively hot Cathedral City on Sunday 24 June, when the home team turned up the heat even further on their Donegal rivals to claim a commanding 6-1 halfway lead. Of particular note here were characteristically gutsy fightbacks by Cormac O'Hare and Nigel McMahon. 

County Armagh Golf Club set up an Ulster Cup quarter-final derby against Cloverhill by dispensing with Ballybofey and Stranorlar.

The return leg was played a fortnight later on 8 July, when the Donegal course offered up a testing challenge given the many rainless weeks experienced there too. County Armagh required 1.5 points to further their competition participation and the first of these was secured in dramatic fashion when Patrick Brannigan finally overcame his host on the 18th green, having bounced back wonderfully from the previously ominous status of three down after six holes.

County Armagh Golf Club's encouraging run in the 2018 Fred Daly Trophy is still very much on track after a second round defeat of Cairndhu in recent weeks.

The buoyant mood created by their dispatch of Portstewart in the tournament's opening phase was enhanced by a magnificent away display in Cairndhu on Saturday 16 June, when Jarlath McReynold's promising panel returned to the Cathedral City with half of the five points on offer. 

County Armagh Golf Club's reward for their Fred Daly Trophy success against Cairndhu is a third round meeting with Lisburn.

Having eliminated Knock and Holywood in their previous two encounters in this year's competition, County Armagh Golf Club's All-Ireland Four-Ball Trophy side could have been accused of reserving their heaviest punishments for Belfast opposition. However, after now conquering North West Golf Club of Donegal to book a quarter-final berth, it's clear that their ruthlessness is much more universal.

Tim Teahan's men hosted the first leg on Sunday 17 June, when they bagged four of the five available points through the winning combinations of Oliver Connell/Philip Dowey, Paul Kelly/Gavin Mc Elmeel, Paul Rice/Stephen Nugent, and Ian Ritchie/Stephen Miller.

County Armagh Golf Club qualified for the quarter-finals of the All-Ireland Four-Ball trophy by overcoming North West of Donegal.

County Armagh have qualified for the quarter-final of the Sam Rutherford Memorial Trophy after dispensing with the second round challenge of Omagh.

In this tournament, teams of four pairs play greensomes, with all matches completing 18 holes and the results based on holes up. Ties are contested over two legs, and Patrick Brannigan's side made good use of home advantage in the opening encounter in the Cathedral City on Sunday 24 June, when Jonathan McKnught/Derick Hynes, Michael Cullen/John Vernon and Kenny Edgar/Caolan McReynolds all recorded comfortable victories to leave County Armagh 18 holes to the good at the halfway juncture.

Pictured in Omagh ahead of their second round second leg are County Armagh's Sam Rutherford team, who will now do battle with Downpatrick for a semi-final spot.
