SYMPATHIES

It was with great sadness we learned of the passing of Past Captain and long-standing club member Danny Barry. Danny proudly served as Club Captain in 1982 in Ballinacourty, a role that was special to him. Throughout his many years of membership, he was a loyal supporter of the club and was always generous with his time and support. Danny’s contribution to our club and his friendship will be fondly remembered by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. We extend our sincere condolences to his wife Sheila, to his brother and fellow club member Paddy, and to all the family on their very sad loss.

GET INTO GOLF 2026

Our clubhouse was packed to capacity last Monday night as we held our Gala/ Information night for our new golfers. John Dempsey and Colette Power lead the meeting supported by the members of our Get into Golf committee. There was a great buzz of enthusiasm among the large cohort of new golfers as they listened intently to the terms and conditions of temporary membership of Dungarvan Golf Club. Many thanks to Tom Daly and staff who provided the hospitality and made the evening such a social event. We are continuing with the on-course practice for the next few weeks. We are indebted to our members who come out and give their time to our new golfers. This is such an important element of the programme.
