A series of home and away matches versus other local clubs are available to all members. These games are organised by the Vice-Captain and selection is on a fair shares for all basis.
There are both Scratch (Hargrove Trophy) and Handicap teams playing in leagues organised by the County. These teams are selected on merit.
Special Mention
One Honours Board competition merits special mention. This is the Festival Cup which is a competition played over two days in late August, with an overnight stay, on an away course or courses.
