We’d also like to congratulate local Skerries man Sean Waddilove from Skerries Sailing Club, who together with Robert Dickson (Howth Yacht Club) recently also qualified an Irish boat for the Olympics.

On June 1st 2021, we celebrated International Women’s Golf Day in style, as over 200 men, ladies, and junior members headed out on the course to compete in a mixed teams event, dressed in bright red to mark the occasion! Skerries were proud to be one of only two clubs in Ireland to be part of this, with over 68 countries and 900 locations signed up around the world to support the day. Congratulations to the winning team – Jeff Sexton, Matthew Weldon, Ellie Carr, and Aoife Donoghue.

With so much coverage and negative comments online and on social media around 2021 membership renewals and our return to golf, the Podcast is aimed at balancing the debate and trying to get golfers to understand the huge problems clubs are experiencing over the lockdown period.
Four guests took part in the Podcast, Pat Finn (past CEO of the GUI), Ed Pettit (MD of Carr Golf Services), Paul Vaughan ( Director of Golf at Ardglass) & Mark Ruddy (General Manager at Lucan GC). In it, they discussed a variety of topics facing golf clubs as we hopefully get back to playing in early April.
An Update from the Club as we all look forward to a return to golf when circumstances allow.
