Care of the Course:

Recently, the bane of any green-keeper's life, pitch and plug marks on greens, are becoming more noticeable on the playing surfaces at West Waterford. This problem never goes away permanently, but becomes more noticeable during inclement weather conditions. The course staff work very hard to ensure that the quality of the greens are to the highest standard, testament to this are compliments from numerous visitors to our club on the quality and appearance of our golf course; we urge everyone to contribute to keeping it this way.

Golf Lessons:

T.W Murphy E.G.T.F is available for golf lessons. Timmy can be contacted by ringing 086-3521070 for an appointment.
