The Hermitage Golf Club is preparing to host one of its most important events of the season, the Ladies Scratch Cup. 

Traditionally played in May, there is a new date this year with the 36-hole event set for Sunday, 1 August.

The Hermitage Ladies Scratch Cup is the longest-running ladies scratch cup in the country and celebrates its 49th year this year.

Along with its longevity, the event has always maintained a high-quality field and the organising committee is confident that this year will be no exception.

Entry forms can be downloaded from the Hermitage website www.hermitagegolf.ie (Click on Visitors).  The closing date for entries is Friday the 23rd July 2021.

The course at Hermitage is sure to present a serious challenge this year following the completion of a major overhaul of the bunkering at the course by (re)GOLF.
