Glynneath Golf Club

What a day. 🏆

Captain’s Day 2026 is done and it delivered on every level. A brilliant turnout on the course, fantastic golf throughout, and a warm summer’s evening on the patio with live music to round it all off perfectly.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out and made it the occasion it was, and to Captain Kris Richards for putting on such a memorable day for the club.

Days like these are what it’s all about. ⛳

With the recent spell of dry weather and an increase in fires in the area, we are asking all members and visitors to please refrain from smoking anywhere on the course until further notice.

This is purely a precautionary measure to protect the course and the surrounding area, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Thank you. 🙏

A week on from Wrexham. What a weekend it was. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Looking back at last Friday and Saturday, it was a weekend the whole club can be incredibly proud of. Glynneath’s 1st Team more than held their own on the biggest stage in Welsh club golf, beating Rhondda Golf Club in the Round of 32 before facing the hosts and one of the tournament favourites Wrexham Golf Club in the Round of 16.

A brilliant effort from Leigh Hawkes, Glyn Williams, Matty Davies, Rhys Jones and Kris Richards and a fitting end to what has been a remarkable season for this group.

Here are some of the best shots from the weekend.

The journey ends at Wrexham, but what a journey it has been. 👏🏻

This afternoon Glynneath’s 1st Team faced the hosts Wrexham Golf Club in the Round of 16 of the Welsh Men’s Team Championship Finals and despite a battling performance, were edged out by a side widely regarded as one of the favourites for the title.

Wrexham Golf Club 3.5 – 1.5 Glynneath

But let’s not let that overshadow what this group has achieved. League champions, promoted, an unbeaten home record, a run to the Round of 16 of the Welsh Men’s Team Championship, this has been a season that Glynneath Golf Club will look back on with enormous pride.

To captain Leigh Hawkes and every player who represented the club this weekend and throughout the season, you’ve done us proud. Thank you.

As our Kontroltek sponsored Stableford competition is about to get underway, we'd like to take this opportunity to wish everyone taking part the best of luck for their round and also extend our sincere thanks to Kontroltek for their ongoing support. ⛳

Round of 32. Done. On to the weekend. 🏆

Glynneath's 1st Team got their Welsh Men's Team Championship Finals campaign off to a brilliant start this afternoon at Wrexham Golf Club, seeing off Rhondda Golf Club in the Round of 32 and giving the club a day to celebrate.

Tomorrow they face the hosts Wrexham Golf Club in the Round of 16. Whatever tomorrow brings, today belongs to this squad. Brilliant effort from every one of them. 👏

This week the Quartz were presented with the trophy to mark their league title and it was thoroughly deserved. 🏆

A season that will be remembered for a long time at Glynneath Golf Club. Under the captaincy of Chris Foote, the Quartz were outstanding from start to finish, undefeated at home, just two defeats all season, and a level of consistency that saw them pull clear at the top of the table and never look back.

Seeing the trophy in the cabinet is the perfect ending to a brilliant year. Congratulations once again to every player who contributed this season, you've done the club proud. 👏

The squad are in Wrexham. Tomorrow it begins. 🏆

Glynneath's 1st Team face Rhondda Golf Club in the Round of 32 at the Welsh Men's Team Championship Finals at Wrexham Golf Club tomorrow afternoon, tee times from 14:13.

Good luck to Leigh Hawkes(c), Glyn Williams, Matty Davies, Rhys Jones and Kris Richards, the whole club is behind you. 👏

A narrow defeat on the road to round off the season, but that does nothing to take the shine off what has been an outstanding year for the Glynneath Quartz. 🏆

Mond Valley Golf Club 3 – 2 Glynneath

League champions. Undefeated at home. Just two defeats all season. From the very first fixture to the last, this squad has been brilliant — consistent, determined and a credit to the club throughout. Captain Chris Foote and every player who wore the Glynneath shirt this season should be enormously proud of what they have achieved together.

A season to remember. Congratulations to all involved. 👏

This weekend the 1st Team head to Wrexham Golf Club for the Welsh Men's Team Championship Final. 🏆
