August 2020 NOTES
*********HOLE IN ONE*********
Congratulations to Dermot Downer who had a HOLE IN ONE on the 2nd hole in Rosslare during the TABS away weekend
TABS AWAY WEEKEND WEXFORD AUGUST 2020
Rosslare Golf Club was the venue for this year’s Away Weekend.
The 26 members and guests enjoyed the “new normal” over two days golf at Rosslare, and the hospitality at Clayton Whites Hotel.
In bright sunshine six members and guests enjoyed a game at Bunclody Golf Club on Thursday.
Heavy rain and winds affected the first few teams at the start of the Friday outing but the weather improved and some good scores were returned . The winner, Steven Walsh, was one of the early starters.
Because of the early rain on Friday it was agreed with Captain Alan that we would not have the usual scramble on Saturday, replacing it with a singles stableford competition. The fine weather resulted in an enjoyable game for all with excellent winning results. Best of the day was visitor Leslie Kertez (guest of Steve Morrissey) who returned 40 pts. beating Dermot Downer with a back nine score of 24pts. Dermot had his own special memory with a hole-in-one on the 2nd. It was another most enjoyable weekend for TABS members and guests.
Next outing St. Margaret’s on Friday September 18. Tee at 12.30.

A Message From Our President
With another great golf year over and with 2019 behind us the prospects for the 2020 season are equally as good as 2019. Congratulations to all the winners throughout the 2019 season but particularly the winners of the “Majors” i.e. The Captains, The Vice–Captains and The Presidents Prize and also The Golfer of the Year. Well done everyone.
Captain Declan did us proud, super courses and his memorable weekend at Rosses Point was great fun in spite of the weather. Once again we are privileged to have had a very strong and active Committee to guide the Society and support Declan led by our Hon Sec Brendan and Financial Watchdog/Treasurer Colm and now as Gay would say “our very own little web site” proposed and developed by Pat Reilly.
Looking at the line-up of courses selected by incoming Captain Alan Heary and his Vice-Captain Mark Horgan we are in for another treat in 2020 and I wish them well.
Any society is only as good as its members and we are indeed fortunate to have a very loyal membership that is growing with the infusion of new blood over the last few years. I extend a very warm welcome to our new members; you have joined an exceptional Friendly Society of existing members of TABS.
Personally, and on behalf of our Society, I would like to say a very special “Thank You” to all of our sponsors who not only provided us with such wonderful prizes for every outing but also brought along visitors some of whom have since become members. Thank you guys, your support is invaluable and deeply appreciated by us all.
I have been honoured to have presided over and to have been part of a first class Committee of Ian Murphy, Mick Dowling, Joe Murphy and Pat Reilly; Officers Declan, Alan, Dermot and that “Daring Duo Brendan & Colm.” Thank you all so much and also thank you to our members for your support and friendship.
I wish all our members, our Sponsors, the Committee, our visitors and all your families a Very Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year 2020 and good golfing.
Freddie
