Thursday, the 29th May saw a Blackrock College RFC takeover at Milltown Golf Club for the rugby club's annual Golf Classic event.

The weather (mostly!) cooperated for the 12 morning teams, followed by 24 teams for the afternoon shotgun. While there was a bit of rain in the afternoon, that didn't stop our golfers from playing some great rounds out on the course.

A lovely 3-course meal was provided by Milltown that evening and there was a fantastic atmosphere at the dinner, with over 100 guests in attendance.

A massive thank you to all of the main sponsors, as well as the team sponsors, tee box sponsors, and prizes sponsors, without whom this event would not be the successful fundraiser that it was. A full list of all sponsors can be found below.

Additional thanks to the Golf Committee made up of Ronan Godfrey, Mick Dwan, Julie Savage, Bryan McSweeney, Neil Keogh, and Brian Cox, for all their hard work behind the scenes. Thank you also to Ciaran Savage for providing the photography at the dinner and capturing the prize winners.
