Congratulations to Tim Collins who won this year�s Club Championship with a gross score of 76 and one better than Dominic Breach who came second. It was a tight game at the Trump International, with no more than one shot separating the two players during the whole round. Both players were neck and neck coming up 18 and although Tim put his approach shot into the water, he chipped in for a very fortunate par, whilst Dominic failed to get up and down from a tricky position just off the green.
\r\nThe net division trophy was won by Conleth Kelly with an impressive 40 points taking the net trophy by a three shot margin from Stuart Dall. Nearest the pins were won by Dermot Bell (3rd), Dean Moss (5th), Wade Goss(15th) and Andrew McFarlane (17th).
