sapping excursion was bad enough without the storm that they

seeing two friendly faces in support, Vice-Captain Robert
McIlwaine and Derek Goldsmith made the long drive to be there
and their enormous effort to do so was very much appreciated.

CAPTAIN’S MATCH UPDATE |
| Donaghadee
ladies continued their successful run on Sunday 13 June with
a convincing win over Cushendall ladies in the Miele. This
is an interesting format played fourball betterball with two
matches at home at the same time as two matches away. Team
Captain Cynthia Burne looked after the ladies at Cushendall,
ably assisted by Penny Patterson at the Dee. There was much
texting between the two and it is doubtful if this competition
could have been played in the days before mobile phones.

Crawford’s Senior Foursomes team lost 3 nil at Knock
and were down 11 holes so had it all to do when they played
their home match at Donaghadee on Thursday 3rd June). They
pulled out all the stops and won all three matches by 11 holes.
The match was tied so the first pair had to play tie holes.
Unfortunately Donaghadee lost on the second tie hole. Commiserations
to Linda and her team but what a brilliant effort. Good luck
to Knock in the next round.

our Junior Cup side just missed out on the qualifying spaces
at Royal Belfast today. Despite a battling total of 323 on
the testing parkland track (the CSS for the day was 3 over
the par at 73), the team finished in 5th spot, just 4 shots
too many from the clubs that finished third and fourth to
claim the final 2 qualifying spots. All in all, a valiant
effort from our guys who only needed that little extra ounce
of lady luck on the day, but it was not to be.
