Golf

We are a friendly club aiming to expand our membership over the coming years and provide club members, of all abilities, ample opportunities to enjoy the wonderful game of golf. Our weekly trips to the driving range are the perfect place to hone your skills or even to have a go for the first time! The club’s association with Barassie Golf Club, Kilmarnock offers preferential rates for GUGC Members.

Competing

Our ladies team play league fixtures against other Universities as well as friendly matches, and is actively seeking new players to help enhance the team.

Our men play within the Scottish Universities Pyramid in the Winter League, the SUS Order of Merit events and in the nationwide BUCS league, with the highlight of the year being the Scottish Universities Championship at Lossiemouth. We are the envy of all golfers in being able to play many prestigious courses in Scotland in a series of friendly matches.

Our men’s section has recently been expanded to include a 2nd Team, which means more playing opportunities for lower handicap golfers.

Having had both teams finishing top of their respective leagues last year, we are looking for new members to continue this success.

Insurance

It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the appropriate insurance cover for any activity you take part in.  Upon joining, please check the level of insurance cover we, as a club, provide to you.  

GUSA recommends that all students playing high risk sport, go abroad to compete/train, or are playing in governing body leagues, may want to consider/need to take out personal liability insurance, or join the sports governing body to be covered.  Some insurance providers also offer specialist sports cover.
