On behalf of everyone at Lurgan Golf Club I’d like to extend a very warm welcome to you all – members and visitors alike.
​
If you intend to visit our club as a visitor, please be assured that you will not be disappointed. Whether you’re coming to enjoy our renowned bar and catering or simply to enjoy a round of golf we will ensure you are given the very best experience possible.
​
I am extremely honoured to have been given the opportunity to take up the role of Men’s Captain and I am very much looking forward to the year ahead. I would once again wish to thank immediate past Captain - Brian Murphy for choosing me to be his Vice Captain in 2023.
​
It is a real privilege for me to serve our club alongside the newly appointed Ladies Captain - Lynne Hanna. Lynne is vastly experienced in the world of golf, and I fully expect to be tapping into her knowledge base in the months ahead. I’d like to offer both Henry Jordan and Alison King my congratulations on their appointments to become Vice Captains.
​
Our club continues to be governed by a dedicated management committee, men and women with exceptional skills, giving up their time freely with a singular focus on making our club better.
As with all Captains before me, I’m really hoping that our teams have a great year ahead and it would be just wonderful to celebrate with some silverware at the end of the season!
​
This year, Lynne and I have chosen as our Captains’ charity Brainwaves NI – Northern Ireland’s only volunteer led brain tumours research and support charity. We will be organising several events throughout the year to raise funds for this worthy cause. Your support at these events would be greatly appreciated.
​
Wishing you all an enjoyable and prosperous golfing year ahead.
Brian Matthews
Men's Captain 2024
