Night Golf is coming to Cork for the very first time and later this month Cork golfers will have the opportunity to experience the unique format in Lee Valley Golf Club. Thanks to Mardyke Arena UCC and sponsors Cogan’s Toyota, Lee Valley will be lit up like an airport runway for the event which is being held over three nights. The ten-hole event will take place in darkness, with coloured lights marking the fairways, greens and hazards, and with a luminous golf ball in play, golfers will have no excuse for not keeping it in play. The team of four event takes place from Wednesday 29th to Friday 31st March, the shotgun format will see the 20 teams start at 8pm with prizes and refreshments included on each night. Already over a third of the places have been reserved so anyone interested in playing should book their place now. All proceeds from the event will go towards supporting Marymount University Hospital and Hospice. Teams for the Wednesday and Thursday nights are €300 and teams on the Friday night are €400. Full details and booking details are available from Wayne Falvey in Mardyke Arena UCC. This is first time that Night Golf will be held in Munster and the idea came from Patsy Ryan.
