Last year, Golf Leisure Breaks was asked (at very short notice) to organize a two day event "Ireland -v- The Rest of the World".Despite the short notice, the event was a great success, with the two teams of 12 competing at Calanova and Sta. Clara in a Ryder Cup style matchplay format. The Irish team enjoyed a narrow victory and suggested that the match should become an annual event, to be known as "The Irish Challenge".
This year, the event is to take place on Friday/Saturday, 8th/9th. June at Calanova and Sta. Maria respectively, with a Gala Dinner and prize-giving presentation on the Saturday evening, with live entertainment. There will be some valuable prizes for individual performances as well as for the winning team each day and overall. Teams will be limited to 24 a side and the cost of the package will be 150€ per competitor, to include all green fees, shared buggies and the gala dinner with live entertainment.
Teams and pairings, with start times, will be drawn the day before the event, and entries will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. For more information and to enter, contact Julie on 952 582 943. |
