Club Captain at the venue, Sally Morgan-Moodie, says: "Peel Golf Club has come a long way since 1895 and we are excited to be celebrating our 125th anniversary year.

"The golf week is set to be an action-packed few days which I’m sure will produce some nail-biting moments across all three competitions – we’re really looking forward to welcoming players from across the Island."

The open competition will be supported by Island developer, Dandara, whose Managing Director, Seamus Nugent, adds they've had a close affiliation with club over the year and are happy to be supporting the milestone event.
