La Moye Golf Club is a private

History
The original golf course at La Moye was laid out by George Boomer in 1902, who was the schoolmaster of future
golf course architect James Braid
in the early 1930s, and was reopened by Vardon.
The course was virtually laid waste during the
World War II occupation of Jersey by the German Army. Major renovations took place during the 1960s and 70s under the guidance of Henry Cotton, and the course went on to play host to some of the world's top golfers as the venue for tournaments on both the European Tour and the European Seniors Tour. In 2011 Golf Course Manager Richard Cutler led the start of a major redevelopment of the course. It is due to be finished before Christmas 2011.[2]
