Our Annual Shane Courtney Golf Classic was once again a fantastic success in 2025.
We would like to thank everyone who helped out in any way to make this happen.
The Golf Classic has taken place each year for Approx 14 years now and grows from strength to strength . The funds raised have helped our club to continually upgrade our facilities in Faha for the whole community.
I would estimate we have raised approx. € 150000 through this Golf Classic since we started and the last 2 years have surpassed all expectations.
There have been a few scary days as regards weather but we always seem to get it played eventually.
I would like to thank a few people as follows :
Maine Valley Golf Club and especially Brendan Quirke , Emma Daly and Pat Foley for all their help.
To Teresa , Joe and all the staff in Harbour View Restaurant at the club for keeping us fed and watered each year.
Our Main Sponsor for the Classic each year is Sean O Mahony and Family Faha Court Bar.
All our other sponsors .
Our Teams and players who take part each year.
Our Tee Box sponsors.
Our extremely hard working committee who come together each year for the 4 or 5 weeks before the event and operate like a smoothy operating machine.
And finally and most importantly we are greatly indebted to The Courtney Family for allowing us to be associated with their son Shane RIP.
To John Joe , Kathleen , Kevin , Norma and all the extended Courtney family we want to extend our sincere thanks for all you do each year to make this event in memory of Shane such a wonderful success and we hope in some small way we can help to keep this event going each year in his memory.
The success of this Golf Classic is in no small way a testament to how your whole family is held in such high esteem within the community and its surrounds.
