WATCH: Report and pictures from Lady Captain's Day at Donegal GC, Murvagh

In 2020 when captains Liam Cassidy, Anne Murray and President Paddy O’Reilly took up their posts, one would have never guessed shortly after the Donegal Golf Club Murvagh’s Drive-in, in the spring of 2020 that Covid 19 would strike and their club would be closed down and reopening for a short few summer months
They are now in the unique position of being President and Captains for two years at Murvagh as they had hoped that 2021 would be different. Lady Captain's Day was in their golf club diary for Saturday July 3rd 2021 but when the Government announced that indoor dining would re-commence on July 5th, Lady Captain Anne Murray moved her Lady Captain's Day to 10th July. Unfortunately the opening for indoor dining once again changed. Luckily the weather was lovely on the 10th and all the ladies were able to have a pleasant day of golf and enjoy a lovely meal provided by Paul Kelly’s staff with chef Patricia before going home.
