Spa Club GAA, who are organising the event, has carried out some major developments in recent years, including the laying of an all-weather playing pitch and alterations to the clubhouse involving the provision of a larger gym, office areas and toilets upstairs.
A new walking path around the club grounds is also widely used by the community.
Among the next important projects is the upgrading of the car park in the club grounds.
More than 50 teams of four golfers per team will be taking part in the classic, major sponsors of which are the Killarney Oaks Hotel, Killarney Oils and Tricel.
“We’re extremely grateful to all our sponsors, tee-box sponsors and those who have entered teams. Their support is a great help to our club which has grown hugely in recent years,’’ said chairman of the classic organising committee, Billy Morris.
The presentation of attractive prizes will be in the Killarney Oaks Hotel on the night of July 8.
