Any details on under 30s membership?

€600, that's full 7 days membership with GUI/Insurance included and access to all 27 holes at Corrstown.

I reckon they will be closing this offer soon due to the large interest in it.

The commission I receive is only on the full memberships, but I get €25 back on the unders which I can also pass to you.

I see that the thread has been concentrating on golf clubs on the north side of Dublin, here is some information of a club on the South Side.
I have been a member in Slade Valley GC in Saggart , Co.Dublin for the past 8 years and they are doing a very good new members offer for €600. This is for full 7 Day membership with the option to add GUI Levy of €21 plus €20 golf insurance. The €600 will be gradually increased over a three/four year period.

Under 29's start from €225'for 18-22 year olds, €275 for 23/24 yrs, €375 for 25/26 yrs , €475 for 27 yrs, €535 for 28 years of age and then 29 years plus is €600.
If you are looking for the golf experience of a good club atmosphere that you will get to meet new people then you should consider Slade Valley GC, I did !!
All the details are on the website or phone Dermot in the office (01)4582183

Played up there in an open a couple of weeks ago and was quite impressed. Nice variety in the layout and very good greens. Also seems like a friendly place. Do you know what the likely increase is going to be next couple of years?

My understanding is that the new members annual subscription will increase by approx. €120 per year and the existing members annual subscription will gradually reduce to around €900, the intention is for this to be done over a three to four year period.
A special rate for under 35's will continue, increase for this category will be based on age.
Played this evening in the Wednesday Evening 9 Hole Competition and the course is really taking shape now for hopefully a great summer of golf ⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️

Anyone seen any good deals for 2017? I want to get a GUI this year (for the first time) but I don't think I'll be able to play enough to justify paying close to €1k in fees

Would not call this a good deal, below avarage course, you'd be better spending a few more euros than the €525 an get a 18 hole course

Which side of Dublin are you based? I assume you don't want to be crossing the city every time.

Bellewstown is 20 mins from swords 500 odd for full membership and think they do a pay and play from 250.
Corballis would be another option.

Ah but its 9 you will never forget. Look lads yes we are only 9 holes with alternate tee boxes and the course is always immaculate with simply brilliant greens year round, even now they are awesome and yes we are at the lower end of the price scale but if you are into competitive golf you will not get a better club, we love our golf here on the blessed nine just look at the amount of articles that go on our website we eat drink and sleep the game and all are welcome.

I played Hollystown for the first time at the weekend. It was quite nice and they have 27 holes too. I think they offer full membership for around the 550 mark for under 28's. Considering it myself. I'm new to the game too

Not much competition really in the 9 hole department, now if I was living in the area and u told me you can have blessington lakes for €500 or tulfarris for €1000 a year, I would not be in the 9 hole course, 9 hole courses need to be very special to compare or compete with 18 hole courses, blessington lakes is far from that.

I don't think they will have 27 holes for too much longer. I think there is plans for development on part of the course.

There are approx 80 nine holers in the country Eoin, to be named as the top 9 hole parkland is pretty cool. Being perfectly honest i would have thought the same about 9 holers till i came up one day about 5 years ago and was blown away by the condition of the course and its setting.

Who's he?


Look, if you are into 9 holers, have a look at it and make your own mind up. My memory of it (leaving the fact it is only 9 holes aside), was that it was somewhere not up to much at all, couldn't even get a drink after, let alone a bit of grub and changing at the boot of the car. Playing interclub team comp they had to bring us to a local pub! Granted, that was a few years ago (probably nearly 10 - God I'm getting old :eek: ) now so it may have changed. However, I do not recall the course being overly spectacular. Most times, you walk away from a place thinking one of 2 things, can't wait to play there again or if I never play there again it will be to soon. Over time, you will likely forget the finer details of the course, layout etc, but you will always remember if it was a place worth returning to, and for me, it wasn't

Kingswood Rover

Not sure about 10 years ago Seve, grub and dressing rooms are now on site, yep basic but adequate. just google Ivan Morris he wrote on book on the 9 hole courses in the country there recently a synopsis of which was published in that magazine distributed to clubs, enough of BLGC, i Played Newbridge a few times last year and thought it was really good, some lovely holes and great value at just under 800 euro's though the 10th was completely different from the 1st, very off putting.

I had the country membership up there, they use to give u 6 green fees I think, played it once, the rest of the vouchers were put in the bin. Settings? Not too sure what you mean by that, settings are avarage at best, you can see the lake. Now Cruit Island, they are settings that will blow you away
