The Course Crew

Joe Bedford

Joe Bedford trained at the Royal Dublin Golf Club; he then became the head greenkeeper at St. Anne's Golf Club. In 1991, he joined Hollystown and oversaw the final completion of the original development.

After seven years, Joe designed the additional nine holes at Hollystown; these holes, as you will see, perfectly complement, and even augment, the original nine holes.


Joe's impressive CV includes the following:

  • Past Chairman of Federation of European Golf Greenkeepers Association (FEGGA 2001- 2005)
  • Past President of Golf Course Superintendents Association of Ireland (GCSAI 1997-1999)
  • Member of the Environmental Programmes Committee of the Golf Course Superintendents Associations of America (GCSAA 2004)
  • Member of the Irish Greenkeeper Training and Ecology Committee of the Golfing Union of Ireland (1994-to present date).

Joe Bedford and his staff strive to maintain the course in excellent condition year-round
