Brief History

Roscommon Golf Club was established in 1904. Located near the old Mote Park Estate on beautiful parkland, this outstanding eighteen hole championship course is situated within half a mile of Roscommon town. Roscommon was originally a nine-hole course, but in 1991 the members bought an additional 58 acres of land and the course, under the guidance of Eddie Connaughton, Architect, was extended to include nine additional new holes. The blend of old and new has been a great success, creating an exciting and demanding new challenge over a 6,290 metre course.

This success was achieved by cleverly interspersing the new holes throughout the old course. In addition, an innovative tree planting programme was established as soon as the new land was purchased. This complemented the existing mature plantations and now features a fine selection of sycamore, ash, beech and whitethorn trees in abundance.

Newly remodeled nine greens

In 1995/6 a fine new clubhouse was built after a major fire, and just last year the original nine green complexes were remodelled by Ken Kearney, Architect, with these due to be re-opened for play April 2009. It is major developments like these that culminate in an eighteen hole championship course to be proud of.

Notable achievements

There have been many notable achievements for the Club in the past  - Lynn Sweeney, Deirdre Mahon and Ken Kearney have all won Senior Irish Internationals caps. The club has produced an additional seven Junior International golfers in the last two decades. We are very proud that Tom Grealy Snr. held the office of President of the Irish Golfing Union in 1999, and we look forward to the future with hope and much pride.
