As you will be aware the Government has today introduced a further range of measures aimed at preventing the spread of the Covid-19 virus in the community. These measures see the introduction of new and more stringent restrictions on movement of individuals.

In light of these new measures , and in line with the advice of GUI / ILGU, the Management Committee have decided that the golf course should be closed until the 19th April. No access will be allowed to the course  for golf  while this measure remains in place.  This decision will, no doubt, come as a disappointment to many of you who welcomed the opportunity get out in the fresh air and play golf over recent days but we must play our part in safeguarding the health of our local community in these very difficult times. Hopefully this restriction will be short lived.

We also need to safeguard the future of our Club for when this emergency ends – as it inevitably will. The main focus of our efforts in the coming weeks therefore  will be to ensure the welfare  of our staff while continuing  to maintain the course so that the high standard that has been achieved over recent years  will be preserved for when we re-open for play .

The office will continue to be managed remotely and the General Manager can be contacted at (085) 2811806 to answer any urgent  queries you might have.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this difficult time and we will continue to communicate with you as matters develop.

Stay safe and well,

Kind regards,

Chris Fitzgerald
Honorary Secretary
On behalf of the Management Committee

Darragh noted that this was the  result of all the good work done by the Team now and in the past and justifies the amount of pride members and staff alike feel toward Sutton Golf Club, once home of the great JB Carr.
