have been better scripted. Both teams were 2 matches apiece with final match coming up
the 18th, Galway were out on the 1st fairway in 3 in the bunker on the right of the green
in 4. Ennis were over the road about 50 yards form the green in 2; it looked a foregone
conclusion, but no Galway on the green in 5 down for 6 Ennis on the green for 3 down in
6. Therefore the 19th hole was the decider which Ennis won with a par. To see the crowd
around the green for the decider was like the olden days of the British Open.
That evening, the prizes and the Trophy presented by the Carr family. They thanked the
Organisers that are us for a magnificent job well done. Gerry Coleman rounded off the
proceedings with some well spoken words, praising his committee and extended a big
thank you to William Doyle Managing Director of Newbridge Silverware for their very
kind sponsorship of the tournament following which Gerry received a standing ovation
which he duly deserved.
Everyone said the course was in perfect condition, and each team were absolutely in awe
of the Greens and most exclaimed that they had never played on surfaces like this before.
During the evening meal Fr. Jerry regaled us with his usual humour and everyone
returned home with very pleasant memories of a week end in the Garden Haven of
Woodenbridge
