Taughmaconnell golfer selected for men's high performance panel

Taughmaconnell's Isaac Oliver has been included in the Golf Ireland men’s high performance panel for 2027.

The Glasson Golf Club member moves directly from the U18 boys to the men’s high performance panel following a season which saw him win the prestigious Fairhaven Trophy, an international junior golf competition, in May.

The Coláiste Chiaráin student is joined on the panel by Midlands golfer and Tullamore native Stuart Grehan who achieved significant individual and team success in the amateur golf ranks this season.

In June, Grehan claimed the Amateur Championship and also played a pivotal role as the Great Britain & Ireland team won the Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club in September.

Meanwhile, Midlands based female golfer Ella Cantwell has been selected for the women's high performance panel for 2027.

The Esker Hills Golf Club member won the the inaugural West of Ireland Women’s Amateur Open Championship at Castle Dargan in May and also featured in the KPMG Women’s Irish Open at the K Club in August.

Golf Ireland High Performance Director Neil Manchip, said the high performance panels feature a strong mix of experienced performers and emerging talent.

“The depth of talent coming through our pathway continues to grow and we’re looking forward to working with this group as they prepare for another busy international season," Manchip stated.
