The Foley Niblick - 8 September 2016



We were blessed with wonderful weather for the 34th playing of the Foley Niblick at Rookwood Golf Course in Horsham on Thursday 8th September. The sun was shining on the golfers and those supporters who joined us for the prize giving, lunch and raffle. 



The dining area was completely full which together with the attitude of all concerned created a great atmosphere of hospitality and bonhomie. The golf was to a good standard as befitted the weather and was enjoyed by all the players. 

After lunch enjoyed by 40 persons Diana Foley presented the Foley Niblick to Andrew Laird and Maureen McDermott presented the Pat McDermott trophy to Bernard Smith. The winner of the parallel competition was Jerry Ormsby with a superb 44 points & Kieran Murphy won the longest drive.

The famous Niblick raffle raised £275 and everyone went home with a prize!

The total raised on the day was £608. and there is more promised but not yet received. We will let you know the final figure after we have presented the cheque in Tim Foley’s memory to St Patrick’s Missionary Society for their work on the All Faith’s initiative against the Boko Horam in Nigeria.
The organisers, Peter Frisby and Manus McDermott thank all our benefactors for their wonderful demonstration of generosity and charity. The monies raised will be of great help to this most worthwhile cause in an area of great unrest.
