2023 SEERY’S CASH & CARRY WINTER LEAGUE – 69 finalists took to the course on Sunday morning and despite a bright sunny start to the day our Winter League final soon lived up to its name. The winners of the Callaway Mavrik drivers with a combined score of 108pts are Micheal Kelly, Derek Milton & Philip Dully so congratulations to them and the other prize winning teams. We really appreciate the sponsorship over many years from Seery’s Cash & Carry and we’ll organise the presentation in a couple of weeks. The full table will be posted to the website so all involved can see where their team finished.

2023 GOLFER OF THE YEAR – No surprise to see weekend winner Sam Moran at the top of the table after 3 events on 79pts, Andy Dunne is happy in 2nd just 2pts behind after 3 successive top 40 finishes and Eoin Ryan is tied with Gerry Jordan for 3rd on 70pts. There are now 84 players with GOTY points and the highest new entry is Kevin Lynam with 36pts.  

MOATE ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARADE - The Moate Parade was a fantastic occasion for the town and we were delighted to be involved. Mike Hiney & I represented the club and maybe next year we’ll get a few more to join us!

COURSE CORNER – Fair play to the course team for having the place in great condition for the Winter League Final despite the wet weather for chunks of the past few days. We will now revert to yellow tees at least until the end of March. Please continue to look after the bunkers, divots and pitch marks. While we have ordered some more sand bags it is important that people return them to the stand so they can be used more rather than spending the whole week in your boot.

MIDLANDS INTERMEDIATE ALLIANCE - The final outing for this year is the Captains Prize which will be held in Mullingar GC next Sunday. If you haven’t booked a spot already please contact Paddy on 085 248 5177 as the timesheet is filling up fast. All outstanding prizes will also be available at this event.

ANDY’S ARCHIVE – Just time for a little one this week from the Irish Press dated 28/8/1941. “J. Nangle, the local professional, will partner Harry Bradshaw, Irish professional champion, at Tullamore on Sunday against Paddy Mahon and Eddie Hackett in a Red Cross exhibition match.” Joe Nangle later became pro at Moate for a couple of years.

Club Notes 12/3/2023

Not ideal golfing weather! 

RESULTS – A.B. Oil – V Par 12/3/2023: 1st Overall - Robert Ryan (22) 8 up, 1st Cat 1 – Rory Minagh (6) 6 up, 1st Cat 2 – Declan Murphy (11) 5 up, 1st Cat 3 – Eoin Ryan (15) 7 up, 1st Cat 4 – Sam Moran (21) 8 up, Ladies 1st – Mary Horan (24) 3 down.

13 Hole Stableford 12/3/2023: 1st Rory Minagh (6) 29pts, 2nd Eamon Coughlan (10) 28pts, Ladies 1st – Beth Dunne (17) 24pts.

But things loooked a lot better on Sunday - 

 

UPCOMING COMPETITIONS – Next weekend we have an 18 hole club stableford running in conjunction with the Seery’s Cash & Carry Winter League Final. As the 18 hole competitions are back our running 13 holes will continue but have reverted to 1st, 2nd & 1st Ladies (unless a high number of entries dictate more prizes) and there are no minus points for wins or places.

2023 SEERY’S CASH & CARRY WINTER LEAGUE – Andy Dunne & Brendan Stanley still lead the way heading into the final few days of qualifying. Last cards will be taken on Wednesday 15th March. Right now due to ties 69 players (lowest 131pts) would qualify for the final so it’s an anxious wait for a few in the 60’s and even early 70’s to see if they make it. 98 players returned the minimum 5 cards or more with 121 entered overall. The final will take place on Sunday March 19th and the draw will be published Wednesday night. If anyone is unable to play in the final please notify Andy (086 0556336) so a replacement can be promoted.

2023 GOLFER OF THE YEAR – Another table that Padraig Keenan has updated for us and after 2 competitions Gerry Jordan has sprinted into a lead on 70pts with Andy Dunne 63pts and Michael O’Leary 54pts making up the top 3. There are already 70 players with GOTY points.

MOATE ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARADE  - We are delighted to be participating in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Moate this year and if anyone wants to join us in promoting the club and being involved in an important event for the town you will be more than welcome. 

COURSE CORNER – Everyone is raving about how good our course is looking and playing just now but it’s important to remember that it doesn’t happen by accident. Tom and his team put a lot of effort in and expect all members and visitors to play their part by sticking to the three R’s - Replacing and or sanding divots, Repairing pitchmarks and Raking bunkers as a minimum.  

ANDY’S ARCHIVE – This week we have an item from a long time ago and a long distance. Found in the New Zealand Tablet dated 3/8/1905 was this item on Canon Kearney who was on our inaugural golf club committee in 1900.

“The Very Rev. Canon Kearney, Moate, celebrated the golden jubilee of his ordination on June 12. He was born at Ballinahown over eighty years ago, and was ordained by the late Dr. Higgins in June, 1855. He has been parish priest of Moate for nearly forty years, and is greatly esteemed by all classes. The priests of the diocese of Meath joined those of the diocese of Ardagh in doing honor to the venerable Canon. He was entertained by them at a banquet. His parishioners presented him with a cheque for one hundred guineas. The nuns and children of the Convent of Mercy also presented him with tokens of their affection.”

Mike Hiney & Marie Keane 

We had a fantastic turnout of 100 players for the Captains Drive In on Sunday. Marie Keane and Mike Hiney both hit fine strikes off the first tee to officially signal the start of the 2023 season. We wish them the very best of luck and hope they have a great year. Padraig Shine was wondering why he never gets in the weekly notes and now after delivering a top class display of putting for the winning scramble team he gets a special mention. Well done also to all the other prizewinners.

UPCOMING COMPETITIONS – Next weekend is a V-Par competition sponsored by A.B. Oil. The yellow tees will remain in play until the 17th March at least. The Winter League final will definitely off the whites and a decision will then be taken as to when we come off the front tees. As the 18 hole competitions have now started our weekly running 13 hole will continue but will revert to 1st, 2nd & 1st Ladies with no minus points for wins or places. Winter League qualifiers can be played any day.

Andy Dunne with his lucky Liverpool cap reckons they might hit 7.......and the Lady Captain hits a screamer on the 18th! 

2023 SEERY’S CASH & CARRY WINTER LEAGUE – Andy Dunne joins Brendan Stanley on top of the table on 150pts and sneaks ahead on alphabetical order! Even more interestingly there are now 6 sharing 59th in the table on 132pts.

INTERCLUB COMPETITIONS - The interclub competitions are just around the corner already and our first round fixtures can be seen on the Golf Ireland website. We have regional ties involving Esker Hills, Tullamore, Mullingar and Birr to name a few. The full fixtures will be put on display soon and we will have a sign-up sheet in the Mens Locker room. Anyone interested in playing on a team should put their name on it. Putting your name up doesn’t guarantee selection but at least team managers will be aware of your interest and you will be considered. There are a lot of teams covering all handicap ranges so don’t be shy.

MOATE ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARADE  - We are delighted to be participating in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Moate this year and if anyone wants to join us in promoting the club and being involved in an important event for the town you will be more than welcome. 

COURSE CORNER – Everyone is raving about how good our course is looking and playing just now but it’s important to remember that it doesn’t happen by accident. Tom and his team put a lot of effort in and expect all members and visitors to play their part by sticking to the three R’s - Replacing and or sanding divots, Repairing pitchmarks and Raking bunkers as a minimum.  

Not an ideal lie thanks to someone not bothering to use the rake provided.

ANDY’S ARCHIVE – Just time for one memory this week from the Westmeath Independent dated 23/7/2005. “Next weekend the club hosts the Presidents Prize and President Mr. Jim O’Brien can expect a good turnout to honour his year in office. The usual format applies, with a 9-hole playoff scheduled for Sunday evening. Currently the good weather and the tremendous work being done by Tommy Coughlan and his grounds staff have left the course in superb condition for this eagerly awaited event.”
