We’re delighted to welcome golfers from Ireland, the UK, Spain and Switzerland today for the first of the three-day annual Golf Classic. We’re hoping the rain will stay away for the most part!
Huge thanks to all who have travelled again this year to enjoy the wonderful golfing facilities at Carlow Golf Club, Bunclody Golf & Fishing Club Official and Mount Wolseley Hotel Spa & Golf Resort The classic has built a strong reputation as a professionally run tournament on three excellent courses, with each posing different challenges for the golfer. Equally however players see the competition as a great social event, offering value for money with many golfers returning year after year.
Thanks also to the wonderful staff in each of the courses who look after our players so well including Anna Gregorek in Carlow, Caroline Dunne in Bunclody and Terry Martin and Sean in Mount Wolseley along with the green keepers and pros.
This year we are delighted to have secured funding from Ireland's Ancient East for the operation of golf classic which, together with Carlow Tourism’s main funding partner Carlow County Council, makes it all possible!
