The University of Warwick Golf Club

Golf Sports Club

The University of Warwick Golf Club is a diverse, growing society open to anyone interested in playing golf at University. The club is sub-divided by members of our Social Golf programme and the BUCS Squad. Social Golf looks to cater for students who enjoy a casual round of golf, whereas the BUCS Squad has 20 members, split into a 1st and 2nd team, who play competitive matches in the Midlands 1A (1st Division) .

Success has come in abundance over the past several seasons, most recently being crowned Midlands 2A champions 2022/2023. Equally, 2021/2022 saw fantastic results, becoming Midlands 1A unbeaten Champions, only narrowly missing out on promotion to the Premier league. The club also finished in the quarter-finals for the national trophy. These results led the golf team to win the University's 2021/2022 Cecil Angel Award; presented to the best-performing sports team of the year. Throughout their campaigns, each team overcame exceptionally tough competition from the likes of Birmingham and Loughborough – universities renowned for their sporting excellence. With the 2s success in 2022/23, both teams will be competing in the same league (Midlands 1A) for the 2023/24 season, a very exciting prospect.    

The dual setup of our society allows us to strike a balance between encouraging participation while also providing means for our elite performers to relish in competition. Club integration is also very important to us; thus, we hold weekly socials for all our members, club meals and off-campus events which are often arranged with other sports clubs from the University.

BUCS SQUAD 2023/2024

If you would like to play golf competitively in 2023/24, we welcome you to trial out for the squad. Trials will be held in the first/second week of term (details on our Instagram or Facebook). The squad play and practice at Coventry Golf Club, roughly 10 minutes away from campus, boasting fantastic facilities. The squad will be limited to roughly 20 players, and as an indication of the standard, the current squad has handicaps ranging from +2 to 10. The First and Second teams will compete in approximately 10 matches each over the year (held on Wednesdays) plus the national trophy. The squad trains twice per week (minimum). Those who successfully make it through trials will be invited to join the squad and take up full membership at Coventry.

For more information on trials, BUCS matches and membership at Coventry please feel free to contact us via Instagram @warwick.golf or email (warwickgolf22@gmail.com)

SOCIAL GOLF:

Social golf at Warwick is perfect for those who are trying to lower their handicap or looking to play socially with other golfers. It also serves as a great entry point for those who are looking to take up the game of golf. The social golf membership is available to golfers of all levels who can benefit from our regular events, including driving range nights, tee times at Hearsall Golf Club and group lessons.

Hearsall golf club boasts a full 18-hole golf course and is less than 10 minutes away from campus! The membership will allow you to play from the beginning of Term 1 till the end of Term 3! Sign up for further details on the Social Membership at Hearsall Golf Club.
