Hello golfers,

Welcome to this week's newsletter from Knock Golf Club. As many members know I have been having a tough time personally with the very premature birth of my young daughter Ella who is fighting away in the ICU ward of the Royal Hospital. I would like to thank all members for your kind support, words and cards. I would also like to inform you that I am still teaching and club fitting each day and to NOT feel you are hassling me to book a lesson. To be honest I have enjoyed getting back to my day job, so please if you need a lesson, club fitting or gapping session give me a call at the pro shop or email me here.  

Ladies through to the Quarters!

Congratulations to the Challenge Cup Ladies who are through to the Quarter Finals winning a hard fought and competitive match. It was so tight the margin of victory was a single hole. Congratulations to Elaine Morrow and her team.
