Play Golf
The
English Golf Union (EGU) is the largest governing body in
English sport established to promote, encourage and administer
amateur golf in England. The EGU is committed to providing
opportunities for all standards of golfers, from beginners
of any age to elite players – European Tour golfers
such as Justin Rose and Nick Dougherty have developed through
the EGU structure.
Golf
is a stimulating challenge combined with getting out in the
fresh air in pleasant surroundings, played alone or in groups
by people of all ages and abilities. Many opportunities exist
to play golf at over 1900 facilities in England, so why don’t
you give golf a go!

information on venues that offer free taster sessions, what
equipment you require, where to play, how to score, how to
obtain a handicap, how to join a golf club, education &
careers and opportunities for juniors…and much much
more.
