The Laois Hurlers Society enjoyed a hugely successful day at the All-Ireland Hurlers Golf Outing in Thurles, with a number of impressive individual and team performances from the Laois contingent.
Portlaoise’s Brochan O’Reilly claimed the prestigious John McGrath Memorial Trophy after taking the top prize on the day.
There was also a strong showing from the Laois team in the team competition, with John Taylor, Brochan O’Reilly, Tommy Moore, Gerry Kavanagh, Matthew Keegan and John Delaney combining to secure an impressive third-place finish.
There was further reason for the Laois contingent to celebrate when Matthew Keegan was crowned Golfer of the Year. Keegan’s excellent performance in Thurles, combined with a series of impressive displays at earlier outings throughout the year, saw him take the prestigious Bill Cashin Award.
It capped off a fantastic all-round achievement for the Laois Hurlers Society and provided a hugely successful day for the Laois contingent at the All-Ireland Hurlers Golf Outing.
