Membership Sections

Mens Section

The men’s section is very active in golfing and social terms. It participates in various league and team events being the Hilliard League, Warren League, Scratch and friendlies. During the year monthly medals and stablefords are competed for along with a number of major events that hold the prestige of an honours board in the clubhouse. 

The strength of golf at the club is exceptional with a number of active category 1 golfers who compete regularly in open events around the county and local region. If your golf does not quite match up to the serious competition that our category 1 golfers enjoy then the more relaxed Tuesday and Saturday afternoon swindle may suit a little more. 

In a typical golfing year our men’s calendar includes:

  • The Hilliard League - is an association of golf clubs formed to provide a venue for social gathering and the spread of friendship and goodwill. The concept of the League is to allow as many of those members, with a handicap of twelve and below, representing their club in a competitive match play environment.
  • The Warren League – formed in 1957 provides an opportunity for players with handicaps of 10-27 to play for their club in competitive but friendly matches. The aim is to allow as many members in this handicap range to represent the club and is open to all categories of membership.
  • Numerous friendly matches
