GUI Committee

The GUI committee are introducing 2 qualifying days for all majors. This is to facilitate the large number of members wishing to play.

The qualifying days for our Vice Captain’s prize are Sunday the 20^th May & Saturday 26^th May.

The competitions listed for the above dates still stand. They are competitions in their own right.

The following qualifying rules will apply.

A total of 244 players, over the two days, will qualify to play on the day of the major.

A member who plays on Sunday 20^th May can also play on Saturday 26^th May but only their score from the Sunday competition will count for qualifying. (You do not get 2 chances to qualify).

50%  of the eligible players will qualify on each day, subject to the above stated maximum 244.

The time sheet for the Vice Captain’s Day, Saturday 9^th June, will open as normal but will initially be open to the first 244 qualifiers from the 20^th & 26^th May. In the event of qualifiers not taking their time slot the positions will be made available to the next best finishers. Lists will be displayed on the club notice board & on the web site.

The committee is taking this action in order to enable the maximum number of members play in our majors while also allowing members play on both Saturday and Sunday if they wish. The success of the measure will be assessed after the Vice Captain’s Day.
Please note: Scores from the qualifying days do not carry over.

 Despite having to battle with the elements on Thursday last 10^th May, the O’Grady Mixed Team defeated local rivals Hermitage.  Lucan won their two home matches and crucially won one away to clinch the victory.  They meet Corrstown in the next round.

The Ladies Mark Bloom Team had a mammoth task to overturn Kilmashogue’s three point lead when they played the return leg last Friday 11^th May in Lucan.  Despite a brilliant effort by the team, Kilmashogue achieved the one point they needed for victory and so it is they who advance to the next round.
