Abu Dhabi Fianna was formed a number of years ago by Irish expatriates who wanted to play the national games of Ireland, Hurling and Gaelic Football, on a somewhat regular basis. These two great sports, with their long and renowned history, are played wherever Irish people are gathered in the world, and despite being of solely Irish background soon win over the hearts of sports fans everywhere with their high level of skill and relentless pace.

Hurling is one of the oldest recorded field games, with records dating back over 2000 years, to the time of the great mythological figure of Irish history, Cúchulainn. It is played using hurls or camáns, sticks used to strike the ball, a sliotar, at speeds of up to 100 m.p.h. Gaelic Football is a bit more modern, with the first recorded games being played back in the 15th century. In 1884, the Gaelic Athletic Association, or GAA, was founded to try and regularise the playing of these games. Rules were developed, which, despite periodical changes over the years, have remained much the same as they were over 100 years ago. Gaelic games have continued to develop over the years and they are now highly regarded sports, indeed they have even taken on an international aspect with regular Hurling internationals against Scottish Shinty teams, and the now annual Compromise Rules Football series between Ireland and Australia.

An oasis of tranquility and beauty carved out of the desert, just 10 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport and 20 minutes from the city centre, the Abu Dhabi Golf Club boasts world-class golfing facilities, a striking clubhouse with three floors of restaurants, a fully equipped executive meeting room, an extensive sports and fitness club.

The Abu Dhabi Golf Club is a member of the International Association of Golf Tour Operators (IAGTO) whose aim is to promote a high standard of professionalism within the golf holiday industry.


Undulating terrain meandering through pockets of palms and ornamental shrubs and trees, flawless fairways, incredible greenery and seven salt-water lakes are part of two international golf courses, designed by Peter Harradine - the man responsible for some of the best golf courses in the region. The challenging 18-hole, par 72, 7,204-yard National Course and the more forgiving 9-hole, Par 36, 3’299-yard Garden Course (2 x 9 available) to suit every level of golfer.
