Another busy few months at the Ballinasloe Gold Club commenced with a wonderful win from Isaac Oliver in the Munster Boys U16 Amateur Open in Newcastle West GC. 
 
The upcoming golfer was met with fierce competition nationwide on the Newcastle West grounds but managed to persevere on the day. Oliver scored a gross of -1 under par on the day and a grand total of 70 points.
​
Committee Member John Donnellan stated  “It is never easy to take a major title down South”. “Well done from the Fred Daly Team, Team Management and everyone at Ballinasloe Golf Club. Your continual hard work and commitment has brought this success. All at the club are delighted for you. “ The committee also congratulated Charlie Mooney who finished with a brilliant second place finish in the Connacht Boys Amateur Open in Ballinrobe GC.
​
Several Hole in Ones have been recorded in the months past, setting pace for the Summer ahead. Senior Captain Andy Fenton had a miraculous achievement landing his Hole in One at the 8th on their Wednesday Senior competition, hit across 185 yards and fighting against a 20 yard breeze. Just before, Fergus Finneran recorded an ace with his 5 iron at the 17th hole on the local course, and earlier Dr. Vincent Parsons hit his own on the 3rd, with some eye-witnesses speculating it was a no bounce, slam dunk.
