The Kildare GAA Development Squads Annual Golf Fundraiser took place on Friday, July 17, 2026, at the Newbridge Golf Club.
This event serves as the primary fundraiser to support the training, equipment, and overall development of the county's underage hurling and football panels.
The proceeds from the classic directly fund the 12 underage county development squads (six in football and six in hurling).
These funds ensure players across all age groups have access to high-quality coaching, athletic development resources, and facilities. Local clubs across Kildare actively support the initiative as many of their young athletes are selected for these county panels.
