Trio must put nostalgia trip to one side

THIS morning’s clash ofDouglas and Laytown &Bettystown in the semi-final of the Irish Ladies SeniorCup at Cork Golf Clubwill evoke a deep sense ofnostalgia for members of both clubs.

Back in 1981, at Royal Waterloo near Brussels, Ireland captured the European Team Championship, captained by Ann Heskin of Douglas.

The team included another Douglas lady, Eavan Higgins, and the Laytown & Bettystown sisters Carol and Phil Wickham.
