Congratulations to all of our winners, and thank you to all of the parents and boys and girls who attended the prizegiving in the Clubhouse after the competition. Our majors are special days and it was great to see everyone after.

A huge thank you to Ciara and Mark, for both your prizes today and your ongoing support for Junior golf in GGC. We have a Junior Section that is the envy of many clubs!

Thank you also to Paul, Jackie and the team behind the bar and also to Ali, Liz, Olivia and the team in the kitchen who fed and watered everybody.

We also had a busy week in the provincial championships. Will O’Riordan was just pipped at the finish line when he was beaten in a play-off for the Munster U18 Boys after shooting a great final round of 2 under par 69, playing his last 6 holes in 3 under par. This followed Will’s 3rd place finish in the Leinster U18 Boys a few weeks ago – great golf Will! Dylan Holmes was tied 22nd, while Jamie Anderson and Toby Murphy also played. And well done to Dylan, Jamie and Will who played for our Mens Senior Cup team today in a great win over Lucan in the Leinster South Area quarter-final.

Isabella Stewart shot a final round of 73 to finish tied 5th in the Munster U18 Girls and Shauna Seifried finished in 12th place after a final round of 79 (Sinead is following you Shauna after a great score today!). Well done ladies!

Up in Tyrone, Ruadhán Murray shot a 77 to finish in 8th place in the Ulster U14 Boys. Ruadhán will make his interprovincial debut in 2 weeks time for the Leinster U14s when they play Ulster. Well done Ruadhán!

Junior Results & News – 15 June 2024

We held the inaugural Billy Reilly Memorial Trophy competition for Blues on Saturday. Billy was a former Junior Convenor and was instrumental in establishing what is now our Junior Section over 40 years ago. Billy passed away in 2021 and his wife Erika and three sons, William, Gerhard and Stephen wanted to mark his contribution to Junior golf in Greystones GC and very generously donated a beautiful trophy which our Blues category will play for every year.

We were delighted to welcome Erika to the clubhouse on Saturday evening to present the trophy and prizes with our Captain Mark and President John, both huge supporters and advocates of our Junior Section. Our illustrious former Captain and President, Pat O’Neill, was also on hand and it was great to hear him speak so fondly about Billy and his contribution to Greystones GC over the years.

Congratulations to Ruadhán Murray who is the first winner of Billy’s trophy with a brilliant score of 44 points. Playing off a handicap of 7, Ruadhán shot an incredible round of one under par 68 to take the trophy home in style! Well done Ruadhán on an amazing round of golf! Great scores also from Daniel and Aoife, well done guys.

Leinster Girls U18 Inter-Provincial Panel:

Well done to Shauna Seifried and Isabella Stewart who were selected in the Leinster U-18 panel. We look forward to seeing you both in action for the province over the coming weeks! Congrats ladies!

Shauna continued her great summer of golf with a convincing 7&6 win in her match for the Ladies Junior Cup Team on Sunday to help them to a win over Arklow, and then had a 2&1 win today as the Ladies Revive Team beat Edmonstown.

Barton Cup:

We had three junior members playing for the men’s Barton Cup team in the match against Powerscourt yesterday. The two Dylans (Holmes and Cavazza) won comfortably playing at home on the 13th hole, while Ruadhán was playing with Alan Keane away in Powerscourt and they won their match on 16. So a clean sweep for the boys! Beech Park up next in a few weeks.

Fred Daly:

We play Carton House in the next round of the Fred Daly this Saturday. We have three matches away and two at home. First tee time in Greystones is at 2.45pm and it would be great to see some of our younger Juniors up supporting the guys.
