Seapoint
Last weekend we held our Open Strokeplay competition and we would like to thank all players and sponsors for supporting us – results next week.
All the members of Seapoint are delighted and proud of our latest Leinster champion, Eoghan Coyle.
Eoghan joined as a juvenile member a couple of years ago with his mother Mary, father Barry and brother Patrick, all of whom have been a great addition to the club.
Even then you could see Eoghan had a good eye for the game, so not too many were surprised when he qualified for the Leinster Strokeplay Championships in Glenville, and to win his first Leinster title is great. Well done Eoghan, and we all hope it's the first of many.
