President’s Prize 2026

Three weeks of intense competition culminated in presentation of the President’s Prize in the bar on Monday 25th May. Going into the third night of play, there were several contenders for the top position. Ultimately, Maeve Flanagan emerged as the winner of the President’s Prize 2026. The results were so tight that tie break rules had to be deployed to determine several positions. Congratulations to all the winners and well done to all our members for a well fought and good spirited competition to bring our calendar of major events for the year to a close.
