The annual Hillview Pitch and Putt Scratch Cups were a great success. There were 133 entrants from 20 different clubs.

The club would like to thank everyone who travelled from near and far to play and helped make it a very successful tournament. It was a very early start and a huge logistical challenge to get them all on the course for the two rounds and play-offs.

Many thanks to all who helped out during the day with kiosk, tee box duty and to our Lady Captain and her team for the food and barbeque on the day.

Also thanks to the ground staff for the presentation of the course which was complemented throughout the day. 

Our appreciation to our sponsors for their invaluable support.

Our senior competition the Paddy Power Scratch Cup is kindly sponsored by O’Sullivan Insurance, Clonmel and the Intermediate Scratch Cup is sponsored by Dermot Phelan Groundswork Contractor.

However we only had one Hillview player David Cahill on the podium, David won the final 18 holes in the Intermediate Cup.

Overall, there was a great spread of prize winners across the various clubs.
