Great excitement at the opening ceremony, our resident piper lead the four teams across the bridge headed by our two Captains Gavin Byrne & Pauline Smith, our President Gavin Moran and Mary McKenna herself.    Each manager then introduced their team, and then  the draw for the semi finals took place.  The ceremony was then rounded off with a glass of bubbles.

As President of Woodenbridge Golf Club, it was truly an honour to welcome the legendary Mary McKenna to the opening ceremony of the 9th edition of the prestigious tournament that bears her name.

After months of provincial competition, we're down to our final four champions – and what a lineup it promises to be! Three teams will experience the beauty and challenge of Woodenbridge G.C. for the very first time, while Belvoir Park (Ulster Champions) return as familiar visitors to our course, having reached the All-Ireland finals twice before – but to date, the ultimate prize has remained tantalizingly out of reach.

The teams for 2025 are:
 Castlebar (Connacht Champions)  Carton House (Leinster Champions)  Charleville (Munster Champions)  Belvoir Park (Ulster Champions)

Woodenbridge is in magnificent condition and ready to provide a fitting stage for what promises to be an unforgettable weekend of inter-club golf.

Who will be crowned All-Ireland Champions for 2025? Join us this weekend to witness history in the making at Woodenbridge as one of our teams will get their name on the trophy for the first time.
