*Break of tie
A three way count back was needed to decide Sunday’s Mr Long Family Grocers sponsored stableford and it is safe to assume that the three people concerned would have thought that their score would not have counted in the final reckoning but golf is a funny game. A winter spent practising in the sun paid dividends for Ciaran Burke (7), his 37 points with 16 of them on the last six holes giving him the verdict over John Morrow (19). Sean Coyle (20) had halves of 18 and 19 for his score and third place. Kealan Quigg (4) won the gross with 31 points. N Oldfield from Whitehead was the best visitor on 33 points and the nines went to Alfie Kane (12), George Baldrick (15) on 18 and 22 points respectively. Best of the ladies was Betty McBride (19) with 35 points on a count back from Esther Milligan (20). Geraldine Crossan (14) finished third on 33 points. Kathleen Hutton was best on the front nine with 18 points and Francis McLaughlin (24) won back nine on 16 points.
