About the Book

The hope is that the Ryder Cup will bring world recognition that Wales is a great place to play golf. In 1888 six people decided to form a golf club in the seaside town of Tenby in Pembrokeshire, in the south-west of Wales. The story of the progress of the sport through the last 120 years or so is a fascinating one.

Table of Contents:
The eighteen golf clubs are: Tenby, Porthcawl, Monmouth, Pwllheli, Newport, Llandrindod Wells, Caerphilly, Southerndown, Wrexham, Vale of Llangollen, Dinas Powys, Tredegar and Rhymney, Pyle and Kenfig, Llanymynech, Penrhos, Rhosgoch, Dewstow, Celtic Manor.

Review :
In 1888 six people decided to form a golf club in the seaside town of Tenby in Pembrokeshire, in the south-west of Wales. Membership cost 10/6d per year. Wales’ most recent courses are at Celtic Manor, where membership costs a little more than that! Between the nineteenth century and the present day, golf has taken off in Wales, and there are almost 200 clubs in this small nation. The story of the progress of the sport through the last 120 years or so is a fascinating one. Women were kept on the sidelines in some clubs, and tolerated in others. The issues of Sunday golf and of the nineteenth hole selling alcohol on Sundays were important ones in Wales. Some clubs are still selective about their membership, whilst others are open to all comers. This book looks at eighteen (of course!) golf clubs in Wales, from the tiny rural Rhosgoch to Celtic Manor itself, and a selection in between. A handy book if you are visiting Wales and want a course with a fabulous view and a friendly welcome.
