Deerpark to host Ricky Kelly Memorial Three Ball Scramble
Deerpark Pitch & Putt Club will stage its annual Ricky Kelly Memorial Three Ball Scramble on the weekend of August 31.
This will be the 33rd running of the competition in memory of the former club PRO who first organised its forerunner event in 1991, a year before his death.
The event is once again sponsored by The Tatler Jack Bar, marking its 21st year of support since first coming on board in 2004.
This year the adult competition reverts to a 36-hole Three Ball Scramble with entry set at €60 per team. The U16 event will be an 18-hole Two Ball Scramble costing €10 per team.
Play will take place on Friday August 29 from 12pm to 5.30pm (last card), Saturday August 30 from 10am to 5pm (last card) and Sunday August 31 from 9am to 3pm (last card).
The presentation of prizes will take place on Sunday evening August 31. A barbeque for competitors will begin at 6pm followed by entertainment.
Last year’s competition was won by Ricky’s nephews Bobby and Brian Kelly, along with Bobby’s son Daniel, who secured victory by just a third of a shot.
Strong competition is expected again this year as the club looks forward to welcoming players back to the Upper Lewis Road course after a busy summer.
Players without Pitch & Putt handicaps will be allocated one by the organising committee up to a maximum of 12 for men and 18 for women. Anyone with queries about the event is asked to contact the club.
