Seniors' Golf at Royal Winchester

A way of living life to the full

The Seniors' Section of Royal Winchester Golf Club is open to all male members aged 60 or over. We have a full and varied calendar of events to offer.

Inter Club Competitions

During the Summer the Seniors will play a total of 17 clubs from Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire and Berkshire both at home and away. We will play our annual Triangular competition against Hockley and South Winchester, where each club hosts a round, and a Quadrilateral against Marlborough, Salisbury and South Wilts and New Forest golf clubs. All four clubs in the Quadrilateral were founded in 1888.
