Twelve scores raise €1,700 for Clonakilty Flood Relief

Thomas Mackle beat Christy Mullins by a bowl in the feature score of the Clonakilty Flood Relief benefit weekend at Shannonvale on Sunday.

Twelve scores were played over two days and raised €1,700. Other notable wins were Gary Daly’s bowl of odds win over All-Ireland champion Martin Coppinger. Edmund Sexton beat Patrick O’Donoghue with a brilliant display and Arthur McDonagh had a good win over Killian Kingston.

Mackle just edged Mullins’ brilliant opening shot. Mullins lifted his second and it fell left just short of the top of the hill. Mackle replied with a brilliant bowl over the hill to the bungalow. Mullins just beat that tip with his third throw. Little changed in the shots to Desmond’s where Mackle was still a shot in front after seven. He matched Mullins shot-for-shot to the line and won by a bowl.
