Waterford SSC – Saturday 13th June:
We are delighted to add this prestigious Senior Scratch to our 2015 schedule. Often regarded as a “major” on the Senior Scratch circuit, notable names such as Philip Walton are proudly etched into the Trophy. The official handicap limit is 4, but all Order of Merit players (competing in our ‘south east swing’) will be considered before the draw is finalised. Shotgun starts will be at 08:30 and 13:45. Price is €30 for 36-holes and bookings are been taken over the phone by ringing the pro shop on 051-876748

The second event of the “south east swing” is Wexford JSC, a new venue to our Tour.

The club has offered an extremely fair price of 20 Euro and online bookings (last time 14:30 for JSC) are available through www.topgolfer.ie/tour
The Grange SSC / JSC – Friday 19th June
If there’s ever a time to take a half day from work or to be on so called “on business in Dublin” that day, it’s the Grange SSC / JSC double header. The Grange is a very proud Dublin club: proud of their roots with Paul McGinley and proud of their fantastic course, which is always in top condition for this event. The timesheet will run for the full day from 08:00 to 16:00 and online bookings are available through www.topgolfer.ie/tour – visitors green fee is 30 Euro.
