Description
Golf is a strategic and skillful sport that blends precision, patience, and mental focus. Played individually or in small groups, the objective is simple: get the ball into each hole in as few shots as possible using a variety of clubs. Whether you’re teeing off down a long fairway or making a delicate putt on the green, every shot requires control, technique, and decision-making.
Our Golf Club welcomes players of all abilities — whether you’re picking up a club for the first time or have years of experience under your belt. It’s a fantastic way to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and challenge yourself in a calm yet competitive setting. We offer regular coaching sessions, organise trips to local courses, and participate in friendly and competitive events throughout the year. Off the course, you’ll find a friendly and inclusive community that shares your passion. Come swing by — it’s more than just a game, it’s a journey.

About Us
Our university golf team provides an excellent opportunity to develop your golfing skills throughout your time at university. Whether you’re living away from home or simply looking to stay active, our team offers a supportive environment to practice, improve, and enjoy the game. Beyond golf, it’s a fantastic way to meet new people and build lasting friendships, making your university experience even more rewarding.
Key Information
We compete in two BUCS teams that play weekly against other universities, giving members the chance to engage in competitive golf throughout the academic year. For those new to golf, we welcome beginners socially with a reduced membership fee, including access to group coaching sessions led by a professional coach at a local driving range. We’re also proud to support England Golf’s Women into Golf programme, encouraging more women students to take up the sport. Matches are typically held on Wednesdays, with morning tee times, so we meet early to ensure timely arrival at courses. Additional practice sessions may be arranged at driving ranges or rescheduled if matches are postponed.
Why Us?
Joining the LJMU golf team lets you explore some of the finest golf courses across the northwest of England while connecting with fellow students from all years and universities. It’s an ideal way to enhance your skills, challenge yourself against strong competition, and enjoy the social side of university life.
