The golf course has hosted several Amateur and Professional competitions in its history including the Irish Open, Irish Professional Championships and Irish Close Championships. The course has a unique golfing terrain which incorporates an old limestone quarry, it is a challenging course and for any golfer playing the course, they will learn that a risk/reward operation is the best method to play.
