Do you want to play Royal St Georges? Join the OBGS now

We are a thriving Society who play a number of prestigious National events and for which we have to raise teams. The best known competition is the Halford Hewitt which takes places every year at the terrific links courses of Royal St Georges Sandwich and Royal Cinque Ports Deal.

Every year talented sportsmen pass out of Brighton College. Few will be dedicated golfers but many of us turn to golf (myself included) soon after finishing College. Golf is a game for life and the delight of OBGS golf is that every generation of OB can participate and this creates a super atmosphere within the Society. OBGS is open to golfers to all talents although I would be duplicitous not to admit that I would give particular welcome to any single figure handicapper who can assist our team events.

The Halford Hewitt comprises 64 Public Schools providing teams of 10 players to play scratch match play foursomes. Another fabulous event is the Grafton Morrish for which there is a pre-qualifying event at Knole Park Sevenoaks with the main event being held at Royal West Norfolk and Hunstanton.
