Golf Ireland have selected a six-man team for the upcoming Octagonal Matches in Spain next week.
Ireland will be joined by Czech Republic, England, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal and hosts Spain, for the four-day event at Costa Ballena from 26-29 January.
Four of Connacht’s team that won the 2021 Men’s Interprovincial Championship are selected. Galway duo David Kitt (Athenry) and Liam Nolan (Galway), will be joined by Co. Sligo’s TJ Ford and Forrest Little’s Jack McDonnell.

The eight countries competing will be split into two four-team groups ahead of the competition, with a round-robin format in the opening three days. Each day will consist of three foursomes matches, followed by six singles matches.
The placings will be decided on the final day of competition.
