The six players selected by the Golfing Union of Ireland to compete in the European Individual Championship, which will be played at Nairn Golf Club in Scotland on 20th - 23rd August have been named.
They are: Noel Fox (Portmarnock) Mark O'Sullivan (Galway) Justin Kehoe (Birr) Brian McElhinney (North West) Gareth Maybin (Ballyclare) Colm Moriarty (Athlone).
They will be bidding to emulate the feat of Hermitage's Stephen Browne who won the title in Denmark in 2001, but who has since joined the professional ranks. The only other Irish winner of the title was Paddy Gribben in 1998.
