Ballykisteen Golf and Country Club

Established 1994

Trees, mountains and lakes are just some of the features to be enjoyed at Ballykisteen. The course designed by Des Smyth offers a severe challenge for the champion golfer.

Bent and Fescue grasses together with modern drainage methods ensure all-year-round golf. Forward tees are provided leading to a course that is both playable and enjoyable for the average golfer. This course is relatively new but has been received exceptionally well by local golfers.

4. Polo

Whitfield Park Polo Club

In polo, a player sits on top of a pony (pony as opposed to horse is traditional, dating from the days when there was a height limit) and, with a long mallet, tries to drive a little wooden ball into a narrow goalmouth with the help of three other players. The four opponents, of course, try to stop this and keep the ball to themselves with the same purpose.

The full match is divided into Six 7-minute "Chukkas" with three minutes given in which to change ponies between chukkas. At the end of the chukka a bell is rung, but the game continues until the ball goes out of play or the 7.5 minute bell is rung to end the chukka.
