2017 Charity Day @ Forrest Little

Monday 25th Sept. and the sun is up from early morning, burning away any overnight fog.
A great day for golfers to be up and out early also, especially when they are taking part
in the Press Radio and TV annual Charity Day at Forrest Little Golf Club.
Yet again, the short sleeved shirt is the uniform of choice, and with just a gentle breeze to keep everyone awake, conditions are just about perfect for another enjoyable golfing day. Little wonder then to see 19 teams battling it out for first pick of the Vouchers, and with 3 scores counting on the 18th this year, concentration would be required from 1st to last hole. When all cards had been returned, checked and double checked, Michael Farrell's team including Matt Kavanagh, (Grange), Pat Foley (Beech Park) and 'The Brudder' Jim Farrell (Lisheen Springs), was declared the winner with 88pts. Running a distant second with 84pts were a quartet of teams led by Paddy Higgins, Derek Richards, Sean Keating and Tony Molloy respectively. Another 8 teams also featured in the prize winners list
Although the greens were somewhat slower on the stimp than in previous visits, the course was in excellent playing condition, thus contributing to the overall enjoyment, and we are indebted once again to the good folk at Forrest Little for hosting this always eagerly
awaited event. Full marks to all PRTV members who organised the prize vouchers
and many thanks to the Golf Clubs who donated them. Also deserving of praise are the
hard working catering staff for the apres golf fortification of the inner man (and woman).
The designated charity will be revealed before the AGM in February 2018.
