About Us

UCC Golf Club caters for all levels of golfers ranging from beginners to Irish Internationals and our aim is to get as many people playing golf as we can. Whether you are new to the game or are looking to take your game to the next level UCC Golf offers a vast range of activities that help you improve and meet new friends.

We compete at national level in Intervarsity and student championships in both match play and Strokeplay. These events take place at some of Ireland’s best courses which give you a chance to test all facets of your game. In recent years we have had great success in these events highlighted by Sean Desmond winning this year’s Munster Students competition and Ben Murray coming second at the Irish Intervarsity’s in 2017.  We also organise the annual Winter League match play series which is played against our neighbours CIT at various golf clubs around Cork. This is a great event that gives golfers a chance to play competitively throughout the winter months while also meeting new people from around Cork.

We also run internal competitions and social events for golfers without registered playing handicaps, such as the Internal stableford competition and our 9-hole social tournament. There were great prizes available and great fun was had by all. In recent years we also went on a warm weather training trip to Spain for 4 days where we prepared for the upcoming season and played the European champions UGPM (University Golf Program Malaga), narrowly losing to them 4.5-3.5.

Sign up for an action-packed year with our great club! We cater for all levels and if you have any interest in golf at all get involved in all these great events where you can meet fellow college golfers!
