Best of luck to all members playing in President Bob Campbells Prize this weekend. The competition can be played either Friday, Saturday or Sunday.  Presidents Prize to Five Day members will be  held on Friday 24th July.  Our course is in splendid condition at present and we hope you enjoy your game.  Thank you to President Bob for our first major competition since we re-opened.  Hopefully the weather will be kind on all days. Stay Safe.

A major fund raising event will take place in Castlewarden on June 29th.  All proceeds will go towards the Jack and Jill Foundation.  Four of our younger members, two male and two female, known as the Castlewarden Dream Team will play 72 holes in one day.  It’s a big task but the Dream Team, with a combined handicap of 5 are up for it. 

These young players have come up with this idea themselves and all funds raised will go to Jack and Jill.  We hope to raise €2,500.  Every €16 made will give a family one hour of much needed nursing respite care.  

The team will tee it up at 6.00 a.m. and start their last round at approx. 6.00 p.m. on the day. 

While that is going on we are having a four person Invitational Champagne Scramble.  Cost of entry is €10 for members and €20 for guests and visitors.  It is the first competition after the closure and we hope it will be an enjoyable day.  There will also be Nearest the Pin on Hole 13 and 17.  All prizes are sponsored by Noel Herterich.

Why not come along on 29th June, enjoy the game on our fabulous course, see the dream team in action, bring a friend and have a great day out while doing something worthwhile for Jack and Jill.

Timesheet opens at 7.30 p.m. on Thursday 18th June.  

Welcome back to all members, we hope  you are all keeping well.  Its great to see members back out on the fairways enjoying their golf.  The course is in excellent condition thanks to Glen and his team, Brian O’Brien and Diarmaid Marsh. 

We would like to particularly welcome our new members who have joined in the past number of weeks.  It is great to see new faces and we know they will be made very welcome by all members.  We are planning a get together for all new members when circumstances allow for such things.

While the bar and restaurant remain closed, Karl is serving his fine fare on the tenth every day, weather permitting.  Please support Karl and we look forward to our catering facilities re-opening in due course. 

The Pro Shop is well stocked, so please shop local if you need anything golf related.  Brian, as ever, is only too willing to help with selection of clubs, items of clothing etc.

It is also great to see our office up and running again, a big welcome back to Colette and Philippa and thank you to them both for keeping us in order!

It is unfortunate that we must wait until after June 29th to commence competition but safety is paramount and this will also give members time to get back in the swing of things. 

Our invitational week was scheduled to commence this weekend but this has been postponed until July 4th.  In the meantime, you are of course welcome to bring your friends for a game of casual golf.

Please adhere to the safety procedures in place at the moment.  These procedures are put in place to keep everyone safe and well.

On behalf of the President and Management Committee we would like to wish every member the best of luck in the coming season.  Stay safe and mind eachother.

As the course is now on the verge of re-opening, our club pro Brian O'Brien has put together a Restart Offer containing a Microgrip (Cobra) golf glove, a bag of tees and some small refreshments for only €15.

Drop Brian a message if you'd like to arrange the pickup prior to your tee-off.
