Junior Captains

This year’s Junior Captains are Ellen Hosey and Paddy Hussey.

Ellen joined Castletroy Golf Club in 2018 at the age of 11 and currently plays off a handicap of 5, while Paddy started playing golf at the age of 13 in 2019, and now plays off a handicap of 1.6.

Paddy was a member of the 2022 men’s Junior Cup Munster West winning team. He was also on the 2021 Junior Foursomes All Ireland winning team and the Fred Daly team that reached the Munster final the same year. Last year he was a member of the club’s Junior and Senior Cup teams.   In 2020, he was Junior Golfer of the Year for Castletroy Golf Club and was privileged to be the first recipient of the Eugene Hanrahan Cup. 

Both Ellen and Paddy say they are greatly honoured to be this year’s Junior Captains and thank everyone for their kind support & encouragement.  
They look forward to the summer playing golf with friends and especially
playing in the club’s competitions and in the team events with their fellow
club members.

They have expressed great thanks for the support they receive from Junior Convenors Aisling, Catherine, Denis and Sean, and for the commitment to coaching junior golfers in Castletroy by our Pros Gary and Jack. They say that these things combined with the welcoming atmosphere make Castletroy Golf Club a fantastic place to be a junior golfer.

Both Ellen and Paddy wish everyone all the best for the year ahead.
