Mountain Ash Golf Club Pays Its Respects on Remembrance Sunday

Laying Our Wreath


On Remembrance Sunday, Mountain Ash Golf Club was proud to be represented at the Mountain Ash War Memorial, where our club wreath was laid as part of the annual service of remembrance.


This year, the wreath was laid on behalf of the club by Tom Williams, who stepped forward with dignity on a day that means so much to so many within our community. The service was a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served and continue to serve in our armed forces. Their courage, their commitment, and their legacy are things we must never take for granted.


As a club rooted in the heart of the town, it is important for us to stand alongside the wider Mountain Ash community to honour those who gave their today for our tomorrow. Seeing so many gather at the memorial, from families and veterans to local organisations and young people, was a powerful reflection of our shared respect and remembrance.


We are grateful to Tom for representing MAGC with pride, and grateful to everyone who paused, reflected, and remembered.


Lest we forget.

Celebrating a Fantastic Season at Mountain Ash Golf Club Presentation Evening 2025 After a long and busy season out on the course, it was brilliant to see so many of us come together for our annual Presentation Evening . This night is always one of the highlights of the MAGC calendar, a chance to celebrate the golfers who’ve put in the hours, supported the club, and delivered some incredible performances throughout the year. This season has seen some outstanding golf across every section of the club. From nail-biting finishes and first-time winners to more seasoned players showing exactly why experience counts, the competitions have been as exciting as they’ve been memorable. Every trophy handed out represents commitment, consistency and, above all, a shared love of the game. Presentation Night isn’t just about medals and silverware though, it’s about recognising the spirit of Mountain Ash Golf Club . Our competitions are the lifeblood of our club, the traditions that connect long-standing members with new faces, and the heartbeat that keeps our community thriving. Seeing the room full of smiles, stories and well-earned celebrations reminded us why MAGC is such a special place to belong. As we look ahead to the next 12 months, we’re genuinely excited about what’s to come. Work is already underway to continue improving the course, refining how our competitions run, and making sure every golfer, whether you’re chasing scratch or happy just to get up the hill on hole 5, gets the best possible experience. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who attended, everyone who competed this year, and everyone who continues to support the club in so many ways. Here’s to another brilliant season, more improvements, more memories, and, of course, more great golf at Mountain Ash Golf Club. See you on the course! ⛳️
