Did You Know?
Before the club had a clubhouse, early prize presentations were made from the back of a tractor.

Development

The early club operated without a permanent clubhouse before acquiring a wooden and corrugated-iron pavilion from a local cricket club. Fundraising, including successful Friday-night bingo, helped finance the purchase of land for a second nine, which opened in 1978. Members later approved construction of a larger clubhouse in 1994; it was officially opened in 1996.

Recognition

The club has recorded a number of provincial and national team successes, including the 1994 All-Ireland Mixed Foursomes title.

Today

Ballybofey & Stranorlar remains an 18-hole parkland members' club that actively accepts visitors, societies and online tee-time bookings.
