History

Initially a pop up event on May 4th 2024, 18 club owned baskets were temporarily installed to get the course up and running while permanent baskets were crowd funded. These have now been purchased and installed as of 22nd Dec 2025, with the goal of applying for funding for teepads in the near future.

Scenic course in Shannon. Still being developed, with tee pads yet to be put down. Great course and shot variety with tunnel mandos and raised baskets.
