All Ireland victory over Castlebar in the GUI’s foursomes competition for mid-handicappers would add to the scratch foursomes Barton Shield crown Warrenpoint retained at the same venue on Thursday.

It would also emulate the same club’s feat achieved in 1987 at Clandeboye Golf Club, when Warrenpoint won four of the five Cups and Shields on offer.
