06.04.08 Sunday Society Team Classic

1st Damian King (15), Davy Jones (17), Ken Quigley (16), Vinny O'Callaghan (21).  90pts
2nd Clive Brolly (14), Brendan Sands (17) and Sammy Connor 86pts

With only two weeks remaining of the current season the organisers changed the format for this week by running a team competition. Having to cope with four seasons in the one day was no bother to the winning team of Damian King (15), Davy Jones (17), Ken Quigley (16) and the maestro himself Vinny O Callaghan (21). 41 points was all they could manage on the front nine but after a pep talk on the tenth tee by Captain Vinny they really went to town scoring a resounding 50 points on the home stretch for a facile victory. They will have an anxious wait for the handicapper’s verdict on their performance. A three man team remarkably enough managed to take the second place and all credit to them they managed very well despite the absence of the main man. Clive Brolly (14), Brendan Sands (17) and Sammy Connor scored 86 points and if Mr Stuart had managed to make the first tee who knows what they would have managed. Spare a thought for Eddie Mitchell and Alan Montgomery who had to play as a two-man team and didn’t finish last. Incredible as it may seem both men are only just over major surgery and are to be congratulated for their wonderful spirit.
