The Patent Agents Golfing Society’s first event of the year is set to take place on Tuesday 28th March. All members are invited to attend this event.

The first meeting this year will take place at SWINLEY FOREST GOLF CLUB, NR. ASCOT, (Tel: 01344 874979 – Secretary’s Office) on Tuesday 28 March 2023 when we will play for THE GREAT SEAL (Stableford Competition).

The Leisitkow Medal will be presented to the runner up. Members with handicaps of 20 or over will also be eligible for the first round of THE BENNETT-SMITH TROPHY (stroke competition) and those with handicaps below 20 will be eligible for the first round of THE ARMADA DISH (stroke competition). The four players with the best stroke play scores in each competition will be entered into the semi-finals of the respective competition.

All in fee of £152 for members and non-members.

Members must book online. Guests may be invited to this meeting. If you wish to bring a guest, please book yourself in online and then send an email to [email protected] giving details of your guest. An invoice for your guest will then be issued. Guests must be over 14 years of age. As Swinley has now increased its upper limit to 60, there should be room for all members and guests. If you would like to bring more than one guest, please contact us.

Each booking includes temporary membership, morning coffee and a bacon roll, 4 course lunch, tea, VAT and staff gratuity. The “all-in” charge for a non-player is £70 but there is no reduction for only one round of golf.

We need to have a minimum of 20 players for the event to go ahead. If we do not receive 20 bookings, the event will be cancelled.
