Glorious conditions prevailed at sun soaked County Armagh Golf Club on Thursday last. Seventy ladies competed for the much sought after hampers sponsored by Rice's supermarket Victoria St Keady.

The competition format was 4 ball better ball and the top 4 places had to be decided on count back's. The winners were the combination of Ann McDonald and Eilish Grimes who returned a great score of 44 stableford points. The youthful pairing of Aideen Cannavan and Carina Oliver secured 2 nd place also scoring 44 points.

Second and third places could not be separated even with a count back as both pairings returned identical cards. Joint second place went to Bernie Rice and Caitlin McKinney and Paula McCrory and Myrtle Rhodie. The 9 hole single's competition was collected by O Gannon.

Mrs Phil Rice from Rice's supermarket presented the beautiful prizes in a packed clubhouse. The lady captain Hilary Johnston thanked the sponsor for their continued support of the ladies branch.

Hilary congratulated all the club teams who are making steady progress in the various competitions. At the minute we have 7 teams in contention. They are The Senior Foursomes, The Intermediate, Junior Foursomes, The Meile, The Junior Cup, The Minor Cup and The Challenge Cup. These teams all have important matches in the next few weeks and we wish them all well.

Brian takes chequered flag in Henry White Memorial

WITH  a one-over par front-nine nicely tucked away, Brian Loney knew he was off to a flying start in the Henry White Memorial Cup competition at County Armagh.

And when the 11-handicapper dropped only a further four shots over the back nine holes to record a winning score nett 64, the coveted trophy, sponsored by Philip White Tyres, was his to celebrate.

Killylea man Brian led the huge field of golfers from early morning. A birdie 2 at the ninth hole compensated in part for shots dropped at the 1st and 5th holes for that one over par front nine. A further dropped shot at the par three 11th hole saw nerves beginning to creep into his game as he bogeyed 13, 15 and 16. But he steadied his game for pars at 17 and 18 for that untouchable score on the day.

Tommy Boyle deservedly secured runners up prize with a nett 65.

Paul McCreesh will undoubtedly have recounted his double bogeys at the 6th and 9th holes as that which perhaps denied him glory. But with a much better back nine he picked up third prize ahead of Andrew McTaggart who, in ccontrast, after superb birdie 3s at the 14th and 15th holes, suffered a hat-trick of double bogey holes to finish on nett 66.

Tommy Mackin's nett 67 launched a prize-winning week-end, securing him 5th prize in this competition and following up the very next day with a runners up prize in the club stableford.

Ian Millar and Sean Dougan, a manager at competition sponsor Philip White Tyres, also produced returns of nett 67, Ian's better back nine taking sixth and Sean seventh, prizes.

John Maguire produced the best gross score 71, winning on a back-nine countback from Edenmore visitor Philip Sheldon.

Birdie hat-trick primes Andy for stableford win

A BIRDIE hat-trick at the 5th, 6th and 7th holes primed victory for Killylea man Andrew Millar in the Sunday Stableford competition at County Armagh.

The village painter and decorator brushed up 10 stableford points from those three holes as part of a 21 points total for the front nine. And he added a similar second coat across the back nine holes for a further 21 points and a winning total of 42.

Tommy Mackin was his closest rival on 41 points and which ironically included a 'no score' a the 7th hole. His 24 points amassed from the back nine holes - on top of 17 from the front nine - was enough however, to secure him the runners up prize.

Marty Oliver shared a similar return of 41 points with a 'no score' at the 15th hole but picked up first prize in the 0-12 handicap category. His better last six meant Brian McGuigan, also returning 41 points, had to settle for runners up, although his disappointment will have been measured in the knowledge that he shared in the 2s with birdie two's at the 11th and 13th holes.

Philip Kelly led home the 13-18 handicap category winners with 39 points - a birdie 3 at the 15th hole the main highlight of his round. And Turlough Brady collected the runners up prize with 38points.

Showing good form in recent weeks, James Magwood produced very consistent scores to take the honours in the 19-28 handicap category returning 40 points. And Brian Liddy was runner up with 38 points, despite 'no scores' at the 3rd and 5th holes.

Four-handicapper Neil Cromwell's 40 points earned him the Best Gross score on the day.
