I have set up the Northern Ireland Golf Society (Yes, its the country Rory McIlroy is from). The main purpose of the society is to connect golfers either from Northern Ireland, or Republic of Ireland and to play traditional British and Irish golf courses. A 16 event season will be created, including two majors (Northern Ireland Open & Irish Open) and a TOUR major, in which the NIGS will go on tour to either a European or American country to play 3 events - one of which will be the TOUR major (eg. USA - Wynham Championship, BMW Championship - Tour Championship). It is initially to engage British and Irish golfers in the hope of playing British and Irish courses.
I am keen to to play courses that are in fact REAL, and have been designed by people on this forum or who play the game. I, for example, have made Ormeau Golf Club, located in South Belfast, Northern Ireland. This is the course i play on at home and wanted to see if i could recreate this 9 hole course in the game, and actually play it. Its a decent first attempt but leaves plenty to be desired. In this society, if anyone has created any REAL courses on the island of Ireland, or the mainland United Kingdom this society is perfect place to try them out.
Ill see if i can gather any support or interest first before publishing the full event schedule (minimum 15) - there is a modest 150 entry fee into for the purpose of imrpoving the societies level, and each tournament requires another 100 to play - 50% returned (until the society cannot level up - in which there will be 100% returned).
Hopefully some British and Irish golfers are interested.

You really need to specify which platform your society is on - preferably in the thread title.
