Golf. ⛳
BCBC Annual Golf Outing.
We had a great day on Saturday for the golf outing at Foxrock golf club. 27 took part in the afternoon and the weather was very kind to us apart from one short shower. The course was in fantastic condition with very fast greens catching many players out. In the evening 36 members met for dinner in the clubhouse. Everyone was delighted to see one another after so long. We had a lovely meal and a memorable night. Here is a list of the prize winners.
Ladies 9 Hole Competition: Joint winners Deirdre Paffrath, Joyce Maguire
Ladies 18 Hole Competition:
Winner Mary Halpenny 33 points, Runner up Brid Bunbury 29 Points
Mens 9 hole Competition Winner Dominic Broughan, Runner Up Roy Ball
Mens 18 Hole Competition Winner Ciaran O Huiginn 36 points, Runner Up Ken Halpenny 33 points

***Congratulations Carol Ann***
Lady Milne Trials – Results
The weekend of 17/18 September saw four teams do battle for the honour of representing Ireland in the Lady Milne Trophy (women’s home international championship), to be held in Wales on 22-24 April next. Incredibly, it was also the first live bridge event hosted by the CBAI since March 2020!
The playing conditions were amended considerably to ensure the necessary precautions against COVID-19.
Everything would appear to have gone smoothly, with the only medical issue being one of the participants being stung whilst outside on a break.
Congratulations to the winning Phelan team, Lucy Phelan, Dolores Gilliland, Valarie Burke-Moran, Ann O’Connell, Sandra Newell, and Carol-Ann Cummins. We are sure you’ll join us in wishing them good luck for the Lady Milne event.
Going into the last round 8 points behind and the team had a fabulous last round to succeed overall.
