The Island's Kevin LeBlanc and County Louth's Thomas Mulligan came close to making the Irish Senior team for the Home Internationals. But after helping Leinster win the senior Interpros for the first time in seven years, they will lead a strong Irish Boys team in the Boys' Home Internationals in Wales next month.

With Conor Purcell, Peter Kerr, Cathal Butler and in form players like Devin Morley, Marc McKinstry joined by talented young stars such as Marc Norton, Marc Boucher, Rory Williamson and Alan Fahy, the future looks bright for Irish golf.
