Dorset County Golf Union
Dorset County Golf Union - Welcome
Welcome to the Dorset Golf Union Web Site here you will find all the Counties Golf News, Fixtures, Team News and County Results along with all the Executive Matters. You can also find details of our 32 member clubs along with their contact details so please take a look.
The Dorset County Golf Union was founded in 1923 and exists to represent the male golfers in the county and to promote the game of golf. The DCGU is the effective link with the English Golf Union which amongst its responsibilities includes the application of the Unified Handicapping System.
It is not uncommon to hear the question around golf clubs, what is the EGU and what do they and the DCGU do for me.............
So fancy playing away? Why not purchase a County Card with discounted golf at many clubs across the South Region.
Why not join the DCGA and have some fun playing in a friendly 4BBB format with your friends at courses throughout Dorset.
Ringwood Brewery has signed a deal to sponsor the Dorset Golf Union for the next two years.
The partnership will see the union, comprised of 32 member clubs across the county, use the company branding on fixture cards as well as appearing on the shirts of the county golf team at major tournaments. The union is committed to golf coaching which is central to developing, sustaining and increasing participation in the sport, coaching also drives better performances and increased success as well as supporting key social and economic objectives throughout the county.
Chris Keating, Brand Manager at Ringwood Brewery, said: "There's nothing quite like a refreshing pint after a round of golf. That's why we thought it makes real sense for us to team up with the golf union to see the two traditional British pastimes of golfing and beer drinking continue to co-exist."
Clubs hosting the County Open, Mens and Seniors Championship and the Stroke Play event will each receive two free barrels of Ringwood, The DCGA Christmas event will be supported as will the County OOM. The County Executive is very happy to have on board Ringwood Brewery and look forward to working together.
