Castle connects to the heart of the community

Reaching 100 years as a golf club is not a rare achievement but it is no mean feat either, and the hope is that longevity is a sign of an institution that has earned its success on and off the course.

Like many up and down this island, Castle Golf Club is an important and integral part of its local community. And with around 1,400 members, Castle celebrates its centenary year in 2013 by demonstrating how it is more than just a golf club nestled between the Dublin suburbs of Churchtown and Rathfarnham.

“There’s a lot of clubs that have got to this milestone and we’re now fortunate to be one of them. It’s been a great year,” says Castle general manager of 11 years, John McCormack.
