THE OLD SHIRBURNIAN GOLFING SOCIETY

Welcome to the website of The Old Shirburnian Golfing Society

2024 fixtures now open for registration - Sign up here!

The OSGS is open to all Old Shirburnians regardless of age or golfing prowess. There are around 20 matches annually against other school Societies and golf clubs. The majority of the matches are over 36-holes at some of the finest golf clubs in the country. They offer a great opportunity to catch up with friends and renew some old sporting rivalries – in the friendliest of ways.

There are three meetings a year. The Sherborne Meeting in May, which includes a match against the school, the Summer Meeting & AGM at The Berkshire in June, and The Autumn Meeting at Rye GC in September. All great events with numerous prizes on offer.

In addition, there are a number tournaments in which the Society enters a scratch team – the Halford Hewitt, the Grafton Morrish, the Brent Knoll, the Mellin (O-55s) and the Alba Trophy. Any low handicap players who are not aware of these events should get in touch.
