Last month the inaugural two day Triskele Trophy Charity Golf Tournament, organised by members of the Irish community in Thailand and FORE° Management, in Hua Hin, was a big success, particularly in the prime goal raising money for charity..
The Triskele Trophy was supported by the Embassy of Ireland in Thailand, Irish-Thai Chamber of Commerce, St. Patrick’s Society of Bangkok, the Thailand GAA sports club and the Tourist Authority of Thailand.
The Triskele Trophy was set up to raise money, grow awareness & provide support for the outstanding work carried out by the Good Shepherd Sisters in Thailand.
The Triskele Trophy 2020 raised THB 210,000 which has been presented Sister Louise and the Good Shepherd Sisters.
