Origins

West Waterford grew from Pat and Nora Spratt's plan to convert their successful dairy and apple farm at Coolcormack into a parkland golf course. Eddie Hackett was engaged as architect, and the completed course was officially opened on 9 July 1993.

Did You Know?
The course was created from a working dairy and apple farm.

Design Philosophy

Hackett's approach at West Waterford relied on the existing landscape and sought a natural rhythm through the property. The River Brickey forms part of the setting and influences several holes on the inward nine.

Development

The club built a strong junior programme and won national inter-club honours, including four consecutive Irish Junior Foursomes titles from 2005 through 2008. More recently, substantial drainage work enabled year-round play. In 2026 the club announced investment in a new driving range and golf academy while adding a resident PGA professional and expanded retail, coaching and custom-fitting services.

Recognition

West Waterford is particularly associated with touring professional Séamus Power, who developed at the club, as well as professional Gary Hurley. Its junior programme has produced national inter-club success.

Today

West Waterford remains an active member and visitor club with 18 holes, year-round play, a Pro Shop, coaching, bar and restaurant. The club reported strong membership growth during 2026.
