Athenry Golf Club
Athenry Golf Club is a mixture of parkland and heathland built on a limestone base against the backdrop of a large forest giving excellent drainage and remaining playable all year round.
Celebrating its centenary in 2002 this pleasant test of Golf on the outskirts of Galway City offers a challenge for golfers of all standards on a course which is uncrowded mid-week.
Extended to 18 holes in 1991 under the guidance of renowned architect Eddie Hackett and further improvements in recent years by Eddie Connaughton have led to the Club hosting recent Provincial and National championships.
Modern clubhouse with a friendly atmosphere gives excellent views of much of the course and adjoining famous "Fields of Athenry".
