Golfing Union Of Ireland
The Golfing Union of Ireland (GUI) (Irish: ''Aontas Gailf na hÉireann (AGÉ)'') was the governing body for men's and boy's amateur golf across the island of Ireland. Formed in 1891, the GUI was the first national golfing union to be established anywhere in the world, and operated separately from the (female) Irish Ladies Golf Union (ILGU) which was founded shortly afterwards in 1893. In 2018, the two "oldest governing bodies in world golf" agreed to amalgamate to form a new joint governing organisation, with this successor body, Golf Ireland, initially operating in a transitional capacity. The GUI ceased operations once Golf Ireland became fully operational on 1 January 2021 (holding its first general meeting in February 2021). History Origins It is suggested that the origins of the GUI were based in the desire by a number of golf clubs to create an Irish Championship. There were 28 clubs already established in Ireland before the foundation of the Union, although they were k ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Máire Ní Cheallaigh
Máire is the Irish language form of the Latin Maria, which was in turn a Latin form of the Greek names Μαριαμ, or Mariam, and Μαρια, or Maria, found in the New Testament. Both New Testament names were forms of the Hebrew name or Miryam English language name '' Mary''. It was and still is a popular name in Ireland, and is sometimes spelt in its Anglicised forms '' Maura'' and '' Moira''. Historically, ''Maol Muire'' (devotee of Mary) was the reverential form used by the Irish, just as ''Giolla Phádraig'' (servant of Pádraig) was the reverential usage for what subsequently became Pádraig. Following the Norman Invasion of Ireland, Máire gradually replaced ''Maol Muire'' as a given name, as Pádraig gradually replaced ''Giolla Phádraig''. Its overwhelming popularity was due to the Irish devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, but in recent times Irish religious devotion has waned and fewer girls are being named Máire or Mary.
