Interclub competition
Strokestown Golf Club has been well represented in the 9 Hole Club Interclub Competition. On Saturday the 3 foursome’s teams took to Boyle while four singles matches at home were the battlefields.
The rain that battered the lads in Boyle was polar opposite to the sunshine greeting the singles in Strokestown.
After some well fought tight battles, Strokestown Golf Club came out on top with a match going down the 19th being the deciding factor.
Thank you to Boyle for the hospitality and the fantastic manner in which the games were played out.
