Delgany Schools Cup 2024

Delgany Schools Cup – Celebrates its 14th Year with 14 Wicklow Primary School Teams Battling for Glory!

The fourteenth Wicklow Primary Schools Cup final was organised and hosted by Delgany Golf Club on Monday, 13th May, featuring 14 Primary School teams from within the Wicklow area.

The initiative to encourage school children up to 12 years of age to play golf was developed and promoted by Jason Bradshaw and Delgany Golf Club since 2009. JPA Brenson Lawlor, Chartered Accountants co-sponsored this year’s event. Local Wicklow Primary Schools have had weekly coaching and practice sessions which have been initiated by teachers and parents involving circa 500 school children from the ages of 8 to 12 years of age. The finals involved 56 boys and girls from fifth and sixth classes.

The Captains’ of Delgany Golf Club, Ian Barrett and Alison Graham stated that the Club was proud to be associated once again with this event and congratulated all the teachers,
parents, and the young golfers for their tremendous performance during the year and on the day.

The event involved children from Wicklow primary schools taking part in a team scramble golf competition and was supported by the head professional at Delgany Golf Club, Gavin Kavanagh, who provided the school children with golf lessons and support throughout the year.
