The Men’s Captain’s Prize Weekend at Cahir Park Golf Club teed off in style with a Seniors 12-Hole Competition, marking the beginning of what turned out to be a fantastic weekend of golf.

A large turnout took to the fairways, and following the initial round a list of qualifiers was drawn up. The leading players then returned to the course for a competitive 12-hole playoff.

Back in the clubhouse, the Junior Captain, Will Burke, held his prizegiving ceremony—congratulations to all the Junior prize winners on their achievements.
