On June 29th this year, we held our first competitive game since re-opening. It was a four person scramble and all proceeds were in aid of Jack and Jill Foundation. Our dream team with a combined handicap of 5 played four rounds that day.

We are very happy to confirm that the final total raised has now reached €7,089.50. Thank you to those who played on the day and also those who sponsored and contributed on the website. This amount will go a long way towards paying for many hours of nursing care for some very ill and needy children. Your support is very much appreciated. A big thank you to the Dream Team who came up with this idea. It was a great achievement for them and Castlewarden GC. The cheque will be presented to Jack and Jill in due course.

A major fund raising event will take place in Castlewarden on June 29^th. All proceeds will go towards the Jack and Jill Foundation.

Today is the 30th anniversary of the first day of play in the club and we should have been gathered to celebrate this great day. However the COVID-19 crisis has overtaken all the best laid plans and in the context of world events our disappointment is a small matter.

The management committee wish you all good health at this time and hope that today in your own way you can celebrate our clubs birthday. We continue to manage the course and administer the club through these strange times. So much effort had been required to adapt to the current situation not least of all the irony that so much effort is going into having no golf played whilst the course is in fantastic condition and the weather had never been so favourable. Strange times indeed.

We will be in good shape to return to normal business once we get the all clear to do so. We all look forward to meeting up and getting back to the trials and tribulations of our golf game. Please look after each other in the meantime and we will continue to update you as the situation evolves.

Congratulations to all winners so far this year. Don’t worry if you haven’t been a lucky winner yet, there are still a few more draws left in 2019 so it could be you next.

Painting of foyer, upstairs landing, downstairs hall, corridor and entrance.

Sanding of the floor in the bar.

Cleaning of carpet in hall, stairs and dining room.

I think we all agree that this was money well spent and without the members draw it would not be possible to carry out this much needed facelift for our clubhouse.

Castlewarden’s Lauren Walsh didn’t take long to announce herself on the collegiate scene in America after blasting her way to a seventh-place finish on her Wake Forest debut in South Carolina.

Lauren had seven birdies in a stunning final round of three-under par 69 to grab a tie for seventh at minus-five at the Cougar Classic. Lauren’s contribution helped her new Wake Forest teammates to a second place finish in the team standings, one shot behind winners Vanderbilt.

It’s the continuation of some stunning summer form for Lauren after her top-10 finish as an amateur amongst the pros at last month’s ISPS Handa World Invitational at Galgorm Castle. Unsurprisingly, it was a performance that pleased Head Coach Kim Lewellen in Wake Forest.
