at Tralee Golf Club, Barrow, next Saturday, why not go for a stroll?.
"The walk starts at Banna Beach carpark at 11.30am
Saturday July 31st. We walk over towards Barrow beach and back approx an hour
and a half. Then we drive to the golf club at Barrow to meet Pius and have a
coffee/lunch whatever.

The recent €1/4 Million investment into the club to increase it’s facilities in order to accommodate the unequalled fixtures offered to its mini and youth members over recent times. Allied to the New pitch development the club has undertaken to do some drainage work in the Latchford’s Training/Mini playing area.
The AGM of Tralee Rugby Club began with the presentation of a Lifetime Achievement Award. The inagural award went to a very popular and well deserving recipient, Arthur Townsend. Club Chairman, Adrian Grey, seen here presenting the award to Arthur, with the help of club Captain Dermot O'Sullivan, thanked Arthur of all the years of dedicated service to the club.
It was a case of mutual gratitude at the AGM as outgoing Club Captain Dermot O'Sullivan thanked Club Chairman Adrian Grey on behalf of the club management for all the hard work and support during the season. Adrian also thanked Dermot for all the work he put in during the year as Club Captain. The captaincy remains in the family as Bryan O'Sullivan took over the role.
The outgoing management team and committee are obviously doing something right as all were returned unopposed for another year.

In the meantime I would
like to
extend our sympathies to Niamh
Daffy on the death of her father today; her team Tag Mo Thoin had to
forfeit their game as they were all heading to Clare to be with Niamh at
her
sad time. We hope Niamh and her
team will be
back with us for the finals next week.
