Clonmel Golf Club’s Mens’ and Ladies’ Captains, David Hoyne and Elaine Winston, President, Pat Quinlan and Junior Captain, Kevin Barry, will swing into action with the annual Captain’s Drive-in to make the traditional tee-off to the 2025 season today, New Year’s Day, at 1pm in the clubhouse.

In conjunction with this important event, a Four-Person Texas Scramble will take place, with shotgun starts at 9.30am and 1.30pm.

The timesheet is available in the clubhouse to add your name.

If the prospect of playing golf on New Year’s Day is not for you, perhaps you would join us for a hot port/whiskey or non-alcoholic punch in the clubhouse.
