A very successful Donaghadee RFC Charity Golf Day was held on Friday 31st May at Donaghadee Golf Club. This year the weather was not so kind but all the golfers enjoyed a great day’s golf followed by even better “craic” at the 19th hole. Special thanks to my co-organiser, Geoff Ingham for his help and assistance (specially his mathematical skills!!).
Following an excellent meal everyone was entertained by Neil Workman, the “Voice” of next year’s local rival’s, Ards RFC.
