Finding a golf society in Staffordshire

Most golf societies are not attached to one club. They are groups of friends, workmates or regulars at a pub who book days at different courses through the season, which is why no single list of them exists. The courses below are where they play.

The quickest way in is the pro shop. Clubs see which societies book with them, and most are happy to pass on a contact. Local golf groups on social media are the other good route, especially if you search for your own town (Lichfield, Uttoxeter, Newcastle-under-Lyme have the most courses nearby).

Booking a day yourself? 20 of the 47 courses here list a website. Society packages are usually on a page called Societies or Golf Days, and midweek dates tend to be cheaper than weekends.

Starting your own society

If you cannot find one that fits, starting one takes less than you would think: a handful of regular players, someone willing to book the tee times, and a format everyone understands. Our guide to what a golf society is covers how they run.

For the day itself, a Texas scramble keeps mixed abilities together, a shotgun start gets everyone in for food at the same time, and scramble vs best ball vs shamble explains the other team formats.

Common questions

How many golf courses are there in Staffordshire?

We count 47 golf courses in Staffordshire, taken from OpenStreetMap and matched to the county boundary. That leaves out pitch and putt, footgolf, indoor simulators and standalone driving ranges, which a society would not book a day at.

Which town in Staffordshire has the most golf courses?

Lichfield has the most nearby, with 4 courses. After that come Uttoxeter (4), Newcastle-under-Lyme (3), Stafford (3).

How do I find a golf society in Staffordshire?

Most societies are not tied to one club. They are groups of friends, workmates or regulars at a pub who book days at different courses through the season, so no single directory lists them. The quickest routes are asking in the pro shop at a course near you, since clubs see which societies book with them, and searching local golf groups on social media for your town.

What format do golf societies usually play?

Individual Stableford is the most common, because it copes with a wide spread of handicaps and a bad hole only costs you that hole. Charity and company days lean towards team formats like the Texas scramble, which keep slower players moving and make for a closer finish.

Do I need a handicap to join a golf society?

Not always. Many societies keep their own handicaps and adjust them after each event. If you want an official World Handicap System index without joining a club, England Golf's iGolf subscription gives you one, and some societies ask for that so their results are fair.
