Captains Prize 2007 Kindly Presented by Michael O’Dwyer
Following hard on the heels of the ninth year of the Dungarvan Golf International which showcases golf in the area and our landmark staging of the Irish Youths Championship of 2007 on the 28th and 29th June. Preparations are well under way and there is an air of anticipation at West Waterford Golf and Country Club as we look forward to the first and premier ‘major’ of 2007. The timesheets are now posted for the Captain’s Prize kindly presented by Michael O’Dwyer. The qualifying round of 18-hole stroke takes place on Friday and Saturday 29th and 30th June, with the leading 90 qualifiers completing again on Sunday 1st July over another 18-holes, with the aggregate score over the qualifying round and the final round determining the winner. The draw for playing partners and precise playing time takes place in the Clubhouse on Wednesday evening 27th June at 8pm. Michael is a staunch and hard-working Club member, and has done Trojan work in attempting to carry out numerous Club duties in his own inimitable way, and I am sure all the members will be out in force to support him. We wish Michael and Lyla all the very best for this prestigious weekend at West Waterford Golf and Country Club. The presentation of prizes will take place in the Clubhouse on Sunday night 1st July and all members and friends are welcome for what promises to be a memorable night to round off the Captain’s weekend.
