Tipperary Golf Club celebrates it's 130 Year Anniversary:

Our Captain Daniel Connery & Lady Captain Deirdre Hayes outlined that the first lady to hit a golf ball, up in the hills of Tipperary was Mrs Moore, from Mooresfort in Lattin, and that happened just before Christmas in 1895.

The 25th January 1896, the record show's Tipperary Golf Club was officially launched. Captain TE Willington was the first to captain the club & they golfed in the Hills of Tipperary until around 1916, when it moved to Scallagheen, then by mid 1920's moved to Garranacanty, and into Carrog for a while, moved into Rathanny into 1939 as a 9-hole course. In 1993 the club moved from being 9 holes to 18 holes, and the journey has just grown from there.

We have had a number of great golfers to hail from the club, including none other than the great Arthur Pearse & Pat Murray, Marian Riordan & Sarah Crowe, as well as Donnacha Cleary to reach Ireland golfer status, just to mention a few.

Thanks to all of our members and locals, we're still going strong.

There had been an extended competition that was closing on the 4th January, so the results for that will be on next week's notes.

There is one lady that deserves an applause, and it's befitting of the new year to introduce the lady that won the Lady Captain's 2025 top prize, she then also went on to win the Lady President's 2025 top prize, and not only that, but she won Golfer of the Year 2025, as well as an All Ireland Junior Cup medal for the golf club. This lady is none other than Renagh Murphy. A phenomenal golfer, 2025 was most definitely her year and she has gone from strength to strength.

Thanks kindly to Garda John Hennessy who ensured all our guests arrived safely and got them home in one piece as well. Sincere appreciation from all of the Ladies club to everyone who came today, and all those helpers who ensured our guest had a most wonderful day.

The ladies Club Prize Presentation on the 17th December featured all of our prize winners including the winter league with Catherine Power winning the best Christmas Jumper/outfit award.

A seriously competitive putting competition ensued after the prizes were completed. St. Ailbes secondary school kindly created the putting board which was minded by our games maestro Mary Riordan who came second herself after a play off, winner was Fionnuala Fenton who swooped a full whack of points near the end of the competition to win first prize.

14th December 2025 Ladies Notes

Ladies Club update:

Wednesday 10th December was a 10 hole stableford club day, where Ann English came out a winner on 23 points. Katherine Morrissey and Josie Dunne' s usual early bird efforts just missed out on a prize this week unfortunately, but they had good scores all the same. There was no competition on Sunday 14th due to inclement weather, but the weather didn't worry Santa and his elves who had the annual guest appearance in the clubhouse to great excitement.

The clubhouse was packed with families, where everyone bopped to the amazing music performed by Aaron O'Donoghue (son of vice captain Orla) well into the evening after Santa had left all the kids delighted. Aaron is most certainly Tipperary Town homegrown version of Michael Bublé. Aaron is available on all the social media for bookings, so make use of his talents, just search for Aaron O'Donoghue Music.

Our frequent podium sisters Ann English and Josephine O'Donnell were in attendance for the big man, with Josephine's twin grandchildren in tow for the occasion so it is timely to include a festive photo of our super golfers.

Senior Ladies: Monday 8th December 2025, unfortunately the weather wreaked havoc this week but still three brave ladies got out for their social golf on Monday. Well done to Lady President Josie Dunne, Meta Kelly and Catherine Kelly O'Dwyer for getting the wet gear on and going out.

8th December 2025 Ladies Notes

As a golf club we are really delighted to announce that a very important visitor is returning on Sunday to the clubhouse, hopefully any families planning on calling to the clubhouse to meet Santa, the main man, will have made contact with Lady Captain Deirdre beforehand to book in.

Upcoming Events: Wednesday 10th December & Sunday 14th December: Both days will be a Club day.

The winter league also continues, with the last day for submission being Saturday 13th December.

There will be a presentation of prizes on the 17th of December in the clubhouse, where we will have our Christmas party night, with both a putting competition and the annual Christmas jumper competition..

On the podium this week:

Wednesday 3rd December 2025 - 10 Hole Stableford Club competition. Delighted to see a different name on the top of the board this week, well done to Ailish Hayes who came in with a lofty 27 points which is superb golfing at any time of the year, and she managed to keep Josephine O'Donnell in second place with a worthy 24 points. Sheena Ryan came in 3rd with 23 points.

We had two 2's recorded, well done Anne Dwyer (On the 5th hole) and Ann O'Donoghue on the 15th Hole, (the Fairy Hole), no better ladies to show the rest of us how it's done. Super golfing as always ladies.

Unfortunately with the weather as it was, there was no chance for the senior ladies to get out on Monday, but all will return in due time.

Same situation for the 7th December there was no competition as the rain kept the competitions at bay.

As always, if you have a society or a group you want to book in to play golf at Tipperary Golf Club for 2026 do make sure you call the pro shop and get your spaces booked good and early. Phone the pro shop on 062-51119.

In the meantime, Trish & Rickie are still serving amazing food in the clubhouse and it serves as a great spot to thaw out after all that fresh air.

Just as a final note for this week: Lady captain Deirdre Hayes, Lady President Josie Dunne and Lady Vice-Captain Orla would like to wish all the members of Tipperary Golf Club a happy Christmas and prosperous new year.

30th November 2025 Ladies Notes

The Senior Ladies were out in force once again for their social golf on Monday morning, and these diamonds were very much on the fairway.

November 24th was a cold start, but the scramblers team of Brigid Shearman, Hanora Cahill Connery and Kathleen Taylor emerged to top the board. Well done to all who took part.

Remember that the Senior ladies play their social golf on Monday mornings and everyone is welcome.

Upcoming Events:

Wednesday 3rd December & Sunday 7th December: Both days will be a 10 hole club day.

The winter league also continues, with the last day for submission being Sunday 7th December.

The ladies held a coffee morning for St. Vincent De Paul on Sunday 30th November and it was very well supported, thank you kindly to everyone who came along & donated, it is most certainly appreciated.

On the podium this week:

Wednesday 26th November 2025 - 10 Hole Stableford Turkey competition. Once more into the breach, Lady President Josie Dunne was aiming high for another voucher for the Christmas dinner, closely tailed by Josephine O'Donnell. Now with our LP Josie Dunne already with two turkeys, her 4 shot cut impacted on her chance of the top prize. Josephine O'Donnell also with a 2 shot handicap for winning a turkey earlier in the month was usurped by her sister Ann English who finally goes home with a Turkey Voucher with 23 points over 10 holes. Mary Crowe came in second place, getting the hamper with the cranberry sauce.

Super golf played again, with the course holding up exceptionally in the challenging weather we've been having.

In the meantime, Trish & Rickie are still serving amazing food in the clubhouse and it serves as a great spot to thaw out after all that fresh air.

2025 Roundup Vol.2 Three "Hole in One" Successes and our big Charity days

Over the course of this year, in quite close succession, we had three ladies get a hole in one.

On the 3rd June Una Bohan was playing in a Galtee Cup match against Barbara Leahy and she got her Hole in 1 on the 13th hole, when we asked how it all came about Una said "I hit a good shot that tracked towards the hole, we watched it and initially thought it had gone to the back of the green. When we couldn't find it we looked in the hole and there it was" and Una won the match on that hole.

On the 3rd August 2025 Joanne Horgan achieved her Hole in 1 on the 5th hole. When asked to describe her shot she responded with "I actually didn’t see it go in, I was bending down to pick up the tee when Colm and Paddy O'Shea said that it looked like it’s gone into the hole. They weren’t sure so I didn’t get too excited in case they were wrong. So we started walking down to the green, we couldn’t see the ball on the green so Colm walked straight to the hole to find it."

Kate Nicholson got her Hole in 1 on the 6th August 2025 on the 7th hole and asking her how she achieved such a masterful shot, she said "I did what I do every time I step up on that tee box, I hit and hope" and it worked for her.

Charity Days: Every year the ladies club supports the Irish Kidney Association, and we also have our member Mary Riordan and her daughter Marian Riordan, who generously sponsor a Play in Pink Open competition each year.

These are two massive days for the ladies club and we are really proud and appreciative of all the sponsorship and support given for these days. Between competition prizes and raffle prizes, there is always a big turn out for such amazing causes that are close to the member's hearts.

Happy golfing

Well done again to all the ladies who brave the weather, they've been lodging healthy points towards their teams for the winter league and getting those steps in. The golf course is in super condition considering the rain that fell all week.

In the meantime, Trish & Rickie are still serving amazing food in the clubhouse and it serves as a great spot to thaw out after all that fresh air.

Happy golfing..

2025 Roundup Vol. 1 The All Ireland Junior Cup Champions

In an historic triumph for Tipperary Golf Club, the women’s Junior Cup team were crowned the 2025 All-Ireland Junior Cup Champions after a stunning run that began in June and culminated in a thrilling national final win over Portstewart.

The journey began on 22 June, when the Tipperary ladies teed off their campaign in the Munster East Junior Cup, facing off against Tramore away in the first round. Displaying resilience and composure, they secured a solid 4-1 win to set the tone for the weeks ahead.
Their momentum continued into the second round with a dominant performance over the Gold Coast at home securing a 4-1 win on the 26 July. With confidence building, they entered the Munster East Semi-Final on the 16 th August , where they faced a strong Monkstown side on their home course. In what many dubbed one of the most tactically disciplined matches of the competition, Tipperary Golf Club emerged victorious over the home team with a 4-1 win which would take them through to the final the following day again in Monkstown.

The Munster East Final against Macroom was a battle of nerves and shot-making prowess. Rising to the occasion, the Tipperary Golf Club team produced another commanding display to become Munster East Champions, earning their place among the country’s elite in the All-Ireland series with a 3.5-1.5 win bringing home a Women's Junior Cup Munster East pennant to the club that night where the club celebrated the milestone.

The All-Ireland Quarter-Final took the team north to Tandragee on 05 September, where they met Co. Armagh. Unfazed by the pressure or travel, the Tipperary ladies held firm to progress to the Semi-Final with a 3-2 win. The following morning facing difficult playing conditions for the day, the Tipperary Golf Club ladies met a determined Dundalk side.

With national glory within touching distance, the Tipperary Golf Club team displayed grit and consistency to book their place in the final with another 3-2 win.

The All-Ireland Final against Portstewart proved to be the perfect stage for Tipperary Golf Club’s crowning moment. In front of an enthusiastic crowd and under immense pressure, the team delivered a clinical and courageous performance, securing their place in history as 2025 Women’s All-Ireland Junior Cup Champions.

Captain Kathleen praised the squad's teamwork, saying: "Every single match was a battle, and every player gave it everything throughout the tournament . We’ve had an incredible summer, and I couldn’t be prouder of this team. To bring this title home to Tipperary is truly special."
Club officials, members, and supporters have lauded the achievement as one of the greatest in the club’s history. The victory not only shines a light on the depth of talent within the Tipperary women’s ranks but also reinforces the club’s growing reputation on the national stage.
