International Match report Summer 2018

CAI vs CAGS

Match Manager Shane O'Mahony led a marauding force across the North Channel to secure an historic victory over the English Chartered Accountants, at Dalmahoy and North Berwick Golf Clubs in Scotland to retain the Celtic Rose Jug. In the first ever match played on 'neutral territory' a final day charge secured victory for the beleaguered Captain O'Mahony, still reeling from another Connacht failure in the Lorimer Shield at Rosses Point.

A fair few examples of questionable sartorial elegance on display in this picture!
