Our congratulations to Paul McGinley on his selection as Captain of the European Team for the Ryder Cup at Gleneagles from 26th to the 28th September 2014.

Set in the foothills of the Dublin Mountains on the slopes of KIlmashogue, Grange Golf Club is one of the finest tests of golf you will find anywhere in Ireland. Don’t be deceived by what at first sight appears to be a short course. This is accounted for by the fact that Grange has 6 Par-3s. Indeed the first two holes are par-3 realistically the 1st is closer to a Par-3½ measuring 203 m from the back tee it is all up hill with trees all the way up the right-hand side to a well protected green.

Mature trees festoon this course that seem to divvy the theory that "trees are 90% air". The 18th is one of the great finishing holes at 362 m it falls downhill requiring a long and straight drive. Even if you are in good shape off the tee it requires a clean strike from a downhill lie, which must carry the widest part of the KIlmashogue River if you are to have any chance of making par on this index 6.

Resulting from the construction of the Southern-Cross motorway, which interfered with the 11th green and 12th tee-box, Grange had contingency plans well in hand and purchased additional land in 1976. Six new holes were added that are integrated into the course.

Grange is the home of Ryder Cup player Paul McGinley and has always had a good youths policy, which is bearing fruit with Mark Ryan winning the Irish Youths at Enniscrone in 2001, the boys won the Fred Daly and Irish Schools in 1999. My son Shane was the assistant professional at Grange having been a member first.

Grange Golf Club has completed the construction of a magnificent new clubhouse, where the visitor is assured of the same warm welcome that existed in the old charming one and a memorable days golf.

History of Grange

Instituted 1910 affiliated 1911

Grange Golf Club was a direct result of the demise of KIlmashogue Club, which was opened as a proprietary and had attracted, initially, quite a few members. By November 1909, the club was in some difficulty and some of the members started to look for another location. At a meeting in the home of the Rev. Henry Cave, in April 1910, a decision was taken to form another club. Mr. Douglas Rowley, the then owner of Marley Grange, agreed to lease ground for 21 years, from June 1910, and the club was born. Major Guinness was the first President he was President of KIlmashogue in 1909. Tom Hood, the professional at the Royal Dublin Golf Club laid out the first nine-hole course that opened for play in March 1911.

R. K. Love bought Marley Grange in 1925. Love was very supportive of the club indeed the Love Cup is played for each year, at Grange. He allowed the club to build another nine-holes that opened the same year. In 1927, the famous James Braid remodelled the eighteen-holes for a fee of thirty-five guineas and the course has changed very little since then, except some minor alterations, resulting from road-construction, and six new holes have been added.
