History of Dungannon

Instituted 1890 affiliated 1891

Dungannon Golf Club was founded in 1890 and is one of the nine Founder Clubs of the GUI. It began as a nine-hole course and subsequently leased additional land to extend to the eighteen-hole it presently holds.

In common with other clubs of its vintage, its clubhouse facilities were small and primitive with an on-going process of building bigger and better, until in year 2000, the Clubhouse was completely rebuilt on the site of its predecessors to provide the best facilities possible for the new Millennium.
