Fairway Football

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is Fairway Football, and how does it differ from traditional golf?

Fairway Football is Ireland's take on FootGolf, where you kick a football into oversized holes across a golf course layout. You'll find it's a fantastic, relaxed alternative to traditional golf, focusing on accuracy and fun rather than power and precision with clubs. It's a brilliant way to enjoy the beautiful Irish landscape without needing any prior golf experience.

When's the best time of year to play Fairway Football in Ireland, considering the weather?

We recommend visiting between May and September for the best chance of dry, milder weather, which makes for a much more enjoyable round. Even then, always pack a light waterproof layer- this is Ireland, after all! Booking ahead, especially on weekends, is always a smart move to secure your preferred tee time.

What should I wear and bring for a round at Fairway Football?

Forget your golf spikes; we recommend comfortable trainers or astroturf shoes for the best grip and to protect the greens. Dress in comfortable, athletic clothing that allows for a full range of motion, and definitely bring a water bottle to stay hydrated as you navigate the course. You'll want to be ready for any weather, so layers are key.

Is Fairway Football suitable for non-golfers or families with kids?

Absolutely, this is where Fairway Football truly shines! You'll find the course is incredibly welcoming for all skill levels and ages, making it perfect for a fun family outing or a casual kickabout with friends who've never held a club. It's a low-pressure environment where everyone can enjoy the game and the outdoors together.

What's the typical cost and how do I book a tee time at Fairway Football?

Expect to pay around €10-€15 per person for a round, which is a fantastic value for the fun you'll have. We always advise booking your tee time online through their website or by giving them a call, especially if you're visiting during peak season or with a larger group. This ensures you won't be disappointed upon arrival.
