Mallow’s Edward Walsh will make his debut for the Irish Boys next month as he was selected on a team that will play Spain in La Manga. The Munster Boys Under 17 Champion was named on the Irish Boys squad in December.
Ireland Boys’ Captain Cathal McConn has named two different teams to represent the Golfing Union of Ireland in their upcoming internationals against Spain (La Manga, 11-12 March) and Wales (Rosslare, 18-19 March).
Walsh will be joined by Kilkenny’s Mark Power, Irish Boys’ Champion in 2016, and Rosslare’s John Brady, who captured the Irish under-16 title last year. Reece Black (Hilton Templepatrick), Sean Enright (Limerick), Jack Hearn (Tramore), Ross Kelly (Tuam), and Cameron Raymond (Newlands) complete the Irish line-up for their two-day encounter with Spain.
The following week, Wales visit Rosslare for a two-day match (18-19 March). The Ireland team features eight different players: Jack Doherty (Carton House), Andrew Hickey (Ballyhaunis), Scott Jones (Belvoir Park), Jonathan Keane (Lahinch), Jack Madden (Dungannon), Robert Moran (Castle), Andrew Mulhall (Waterford Castle) and Liam Power (Galway).
