No Ladies' Junior Championship
Playing the Matchplay Championships over one weekend (28-29 June) at Athy made for an excellent atmosphere and a great event. The finals resulted:

The third playing of the Charity Fourball was very successful and it raised badly-needed funds for the Cancer Unit of the Drogheda Memorial Hospital, The Curragh. Our Short Grass Classic, run in October at the end of the season is a competition with a difference. Every participant really enjoys the event and it is oversubscribed every year!
THE KILDARE SCENE 1998
The Kildare Pitch and Putt season starts with the Winter Leagues, which are held in February/March. This year scoring in all sections was close with the result in doubt up to the second last round in some cases and the last round in other cases. The winners were:

The Kildare Strokeplay Championships were held at St. Bridget’s on 24th May. Again this year the ladies entry was very poor and there was no runner-up in the junior section.

The Matchplay Champiosnhips on 20th-21st June made for an excellent atmosphere and a great event and the course was in good order. The ladies section in this competition was very poor. Only two junior ladies and six inter ladies played. The winners were:
Gents Senior: Frank Ryan (St. Bridget’s)
Gents Inter: F. Dempsey (Athgarvan)
Gents Junior: Ibar Hawkins (St. Bridget’s)
Ladies Senior: Marian Byrne (St. Bridget’s)

The second last competition of the season in Kildare was the Charity Fourball in aid of the Drogheda Memorial Hospital, The Curragh. 1998 was the fourth year we have run this competition to raise funds for the Cancer Unit. This again proved to be a very successful competition and on Friday 18th September a cheque for £500 was presented to the hospital.
The final competition of the season was the Short Grass Classic at the beginning of October. The entry this year was very good.
