The club members compete in approximately 16-20 scheduled Sunday tournaments held at our home course Blue Hill Golf Club in Pearl River, NY. These tournaments start every year in March just as the snows clear and continue to November. these are individual one-day tournaments where the winners and runner up of each receive beautiful Waterford crystal. the members also compete by match play in various Club Championships and an overall yearly championship (Golfer of the Year). These championships include the prestigious SINGLES with competition of all the members on a handicap basis. The SCRATCH is a non-handicap competition of the best golfers that qualified to this select field. The DOUBLES competitions are always very enjoyable and most competitive. The PRESIDENTS tournament varies year to year at the discretion of the club President and the Greens Committee Chairman.
Additional tournaments and Club outing are held each year at other local clubs. Over the years these included outings to Philip Rotella Golf Club, Spook Rock Golf Club, The Irish Links at Unionvale, various Pocono and Catskill golf Clubs and other New York area clubs competing in the Irish Interclub Championship. The past seven years were concluded with an October Celtic Ryder Cup competition against the Blue Hill Sunday Club that has become a most enjoyable and competitive event. Just about every year there were winter trips to Florida, Ocean City, Myrtle Beach, or Pinehurst. (Most of the members would rather forget the trip to the Dominican Republic).
Every year the Celtic Golf Club Sponsors and runs an Invitational Tournament at Blue Hill with a full breakfast and great competition. Following the tournament there is a dinner party with prizes and a drawing for trips to Ireland. This tournament is important to the club as a special fun event that also is the main contributor to our Celtic Charitable Fund.
