Carr Golf have announced that it is now managing golf course maintenance operations at Mallow Golf Club in County Cork.
This multi-partnership will focus on the comprehensive modernisation of the club’s maintenance practices and central fleet to deliver tournament-ready course conditions year-round and bolster its stature as one of Munster’s premier parklands.
Furthermore, Carr Golf’s certified professional advisors will help Mallow’s greenskeepers meet the ever-growing number of environmental regulations and directives.
Located in the Blackwater Valley, Mallow Golf Club is known for its challenging but enjoyable championship layout on a rolling landscape bordered by native trees and mountainous scenery.
Carr Golf has developed bespoke, data-driven maintenance and agronomic plans to elevate the playability and presentation of the par-72 course – while maintaining long-term sustainability. Improvements are tracked and measured against key performance indicators set against industry benchmarks.
Also, as the largest independent purchaser of maintenance machinery and materials in Ireland and the UK, the company is tasked with identifying and acquiring cutting-edge equipment on behalf of the golf club, essential for modern course care.
Paul Farrell, Interim Chairman and Trustee at Mallow Golf Club, said: “The Trustees, together with Interim Course Chairman, Denis O’Donovan are pleased to work alongside our staff and new partners Carr Golf to improve our course presentation and conditions. We are enhancing our reputation as a hidden gem and stellar test of parkland golf in Munster, through embracing new working practices and upgrading of our machinery fleet and facilities. This is an exciting opportunity to take Mallow Golf Club to the next level.”
Ed Pettit, Managing Director of Carr Golf’s maintenance division commented: “We’re delighted to guide the committee and staff through an increasingly complex suite of EU regulations and bring our wider expertise to Mallow Golf Club. Munster is such a competitive market for golf venues. So, we’re excited to help exceed their members’ and guests’ expectations through consistent, measurable course enhancements based on proven processes and performance benchmarks developed over almost two decades.”
