KGC Ladies Minor Cup Team delivered a wonderful victory at Lisheen Springs on Sunday. In challenging windy and wet conditions, the team came out on top beating Dun Laoghaire on a course that looked significantly better suited to the opposition. A tense afternoon of golf was wrapped up with three late wins on 16 and 17 for Kilmashogue.
A splendid day of golf at home on Sunday as Kilmashogue hosted their ILGU Neutral Venue Day.
Congratulations to the KGC Minor Team (Emily, Elaine, Deirdra, Marion & Mary) who beat Delgany yesterday in Powerscourt to proceed to round 2. The ladies battled all the way with most of the team of 5 being down early on.

See below some photos from the Ladies Christmas lunch. As you can see it was a lovely occasion with some great golf followed by lunch. Captain Anne gave all the ladies a beautiful jar of home-made preserves to take home. There was some interesting entertainment including a brilliant sketch by Jennifer Sowman which involved a pant-suit and a wedding but that's all we can say - as they say what goes on in the club-house stays in the club-house! A group of ladies performed a flash-dance to Bee Gee's Staying Alive which they had been practising as a surprise for Captain Anne, who said it was now clear what the ladies had been up to on the Tuesday's in November/December when the course was closed!
A very successful shopping trip was organised by Kilmashogue President Dodie O'Brien to Kildare Village earlier this week. After some serious shopping the members were able to take it easy with a glass of prosecco safe in the knowledge that the christmas shopping is in the bag!
