Leinster Men's 4 Ball V Powerscourt on June 20th  3 1/2  v 1/2  Win for BMGC ! >>L4-DRAW<<

Sun 13th of July, A great day was had in butter mountain and druids Heath. We were up against a seasoned team  but we matched them hole for hole but unfortunely not enough      but we came away with our chestnuts  mk mkeown and Simon unbeaten     and some players new to this arena   but proved themselves  worthy of inclusion in the next adventure     but have to say  the  games were played in complimentary  good spirit    all friends after the game.  

   We wish them all the best in their next match, Captain Paddy Horan.
