There cannot be a finer setting for this summer fixture than the RED and BLUE courses that wind their way through heathland and woods in some of the most stunning Berkshire countryside. You will not find a better test of golf anywhere and, as most of you will know, the Club is also famous for its mouth-watering food so [...]
The next fixture is Addington Palace Monday, June 24 — Cost for members £59 all inclusive! For this bargain price, there are two rounds of golf (no reduction if playing just the one) on one of the undiscovered golfing gems just outside of Croydon in South London. Though regarded as one of Surrey's best courses, it is many years since the Society last played Addington Palace when the [...]
Society Captain Nick Stevens was certainly “up to scratch” at the Walton Heath fixture when winning his second successive trophy of the year. Playing off 2-handicap after being cut a shot for winning at the first fixture of the new season at The Grove, there was no stopping Nick around the challenging Surrey course in [...]
The Northcliffe had a Hat Trick of wins over the Press Golfing Society in this year’s annual match for the Lord Northcliffe Challenge Cup. The Society followed up wins at Woodhall Spa in 2017 and Ferndown last year with what looked like being a very comfortable victory after holding a big overnight lead. But played over [...]
New Society Captain Nick Stevens lead from the front at The Grove fixture with a remarkable display of precision golf on a day when strong gusty winds made play a true golfing challenge. Playing off a handicap of 3, Nick’s 38pts was the highest score out of 44 players and won him The Burton Challenge [...]
Get ready for a great day at WALTON HEATH, MONDAY, MAY 13, for £79 ….the same price as last year. This includes the Ball Sweep and the 2's competition but not the £5 needed for the "Back the Winner" competition. Because of the price, there is no reduction if you only play the one round. We play the New Course in the morning [...]
What a festive way to end the golfing season and once again a prize table full of wonderful Christmas presents straight out of Santa’s sack. There was a bumper turnout of Northcliffe’s finest golfers for the Christmas Scramble with Roast Turkey and plum pudding for lunch, Christmas crackers, paper hats and fun and laughter [...]
Welcome to the start of the 2019 season and what a great golfing year there is in store. We have a brilliant fixture list and, with the fund raising at our meetings, they are all tremendous value for money. We start with THE GROVE in March, followed by the Old and New courses at WALTON HEATH in May. June sees "Captain's Day" and July we are at The BERKSHIRE, playing both [...]
It's not often that one of the Society's single figure handicappers hits a great shot to a Par 3 and then, taking his putt, sees his ball slip past the pin and run off the green before dropping into the stream alongside! That is what happened in this year's Match Play knockout final at The Grove for nine-handicapper Ian McGowan, who then, frustratingly, watched opponent Mike [...]
The end of season fixture at West Hill was in doubt right up to the last minute after torrential rain closed the course the day before, but the rain relented overnight and the green staff were out in force to make play possible. Conditions were so good that you would hardly have known there had [...]
