Club Services

One of the SGU’s Strategic Goals and most important areas of activity is Club Services. With seemingly increasing levels of legislation affecting golf clubs, the SGU keeps a regular watch on relevant legislation and offers interpretation and advice to affiliated clubs. Areas covered range from Licensing Law to Child Protection, from Equality to Outdoor Access.

In addition, this section of the site introduces the Scottish Golf Environment group (SGEG), a company wholly owned by the SGU. SGEG offers free advice to affiliated golf clubs on a whole range of environmental topics.

As clubs face ever more challenging times, this section also provides details of a variety of practical guides aimed to assist key volunteer posts within clubs and others aimed at golfers to remind us all of the importance of playing by the rules of golf and respecting the high levels of etiquette associated with golf.

The Best Practice section aims to share experiences of different clubs across Scotland.

We hope you find the Club Services part of the SGU web site useful and informative and we would always welcome any feedback you might have.
