Brynhill (Barry) Golf Club

Founded on 9 February 1921 following a meeting at Barry YMCA, Brynhill's original layout was designed by professional golfer Ted Ray and built with the help of its own members, officially opening on 28 May 1921 in a ceremonial match said to be the first golf footage filmed in Wales. The club's first professional, David Rees, was father to Dai Rees, the legendary Ryder Cup captain, and the course was substantially expanded by Dave Thomas Ltd in 1998 into the championship 18-hole layout played today.
