Thomas McCurtains GAA Club Notes
June 19, 2017
The ladies footballers had a great win over Tir Chonaill Gaels in the first round of the championship. Every player played brilliantly and it was a great team performance all over the pitch.
Ladies team in Greenford.
Our annual Golf Day took place on Saturday in Ilford Golf Club with a total of 10 teams taking part. There was some good rounds during the day with a few golfers recording scores over 40. Congratulations to Sean O'Reagan who won the individual event, Craig Doyle, PJ Rowe, Declan Byrne and Paddy Looby who won the team event, Caomhan Joyce who won the longest drive competition and Alan Murphy who won the nearest the pin competition. A huge thanks to all our sponsors who made the day possible.
