Club History
Founded 1995 Affiliated 1995 Aughnacloy Golf Club was one of the founder clubs of the Golfing Union of Ireland, in November 1891.

It was one of the first 18-hole courses in the country. The Aughnacloy putter was first played for on 11th May 1889, and was won by Mr. H. Shay, of the Royal Belfast G. C. There were over 40 competitors and over 100 spectators turned out.

He secured his back-to-back Captain's Prizes with a fine opening eighteen of 63 followed by a 73 on the second day which was just enough to win by a shot from Tom Molumby.
