Ballybofey golf club was formally founded on January 22nd 1957, under it’s first president Mr Willie Raitt and Mr John Joe Kennedy as founder Captain. Initially the course was nine hole and was opened for play in June 1958. In the absence of a clubhouse the first presentations were made from the back of a tractor! An old wooden and corrugated iron clubhouse was soon bought and proved to be a great success in the formative years of the club with many a lively night and local story told- a friendly, hospitable atmosphere that still thrives today. Over the years there have been some very fine scorecards. The 18 hole record of 63 has been set by Mr Enda mc Menamin and has been equalled in recent times by Mr Derek mc Neill. The ladies course record is held by Ms Darragh Mc Gowan who set a record of 66 in the Captains prize competition of 2006.
