IGC Society to Host Prestigious Summer Events

By: | Thu 25 Jul 2019


One of the best ways of playing golf is through a golf society. While traditional club membership is a great way to experience the game, societies are an especially good option for meeting other golfers, playing more courses and just generally expanding your golfing horizons. One of the most popular and top-quality societies is the London-based International Golf Club – London, or IGC, offering golfers a premium society experience that can be rivalled by few others. This is particularly true of the club’s final summer run, which is open for booking now. A truly luxury golfing experience at some of the best and most prestigious courses in the UK, including Woburn, Sunningdale and Moor Park, golfers in search of the very top society events should make sure to make a space for these in their golfing calendars.

IGC London

Societies and their Benefits

In recent years, more and more golfers have been benefitting from the advantages of joining a golf society. While the model of the traditional golf club – whereby golfers pay a fixed, yearly fee to give them access to a particular course – is still going strong, more and more players are choosing to supplement membership of a club with membership of a society. For a small fee, players can join groups of like-minded golfers who organise events at a variety of different clubs. These typically include lunch and a round on a new course, as well as all the advantages of societies' usually thriving social scenes. 

The International Golf Club - London

The International Golf Club – London is one of the best societies in the country, offering a premium style golfing experience and packages for players who wish either to enjoy the quality and social trappings of a traditional club experience without joining a club, or, more commonly, to play further golf on top of their club membership in a like-minded society. Golfers from all backgrounds enjoy the society because it’s a great way of playing more golf and, especially, on a variety of top-quality courses. The advantages of the IGC are manifold. The society offers a brilliant way of meeting fellow golfers, making new friends, and it’s also well-suited to business people, being a great way to entertain and impress clients or guests. Members receive up to 15% off each event. There’s even a pick-up service for those without a car and don’t worry about forgetting your clubs – clubs hire is available at every event.

IGC Summer Event – Woburn GC – Wednesday 21st August (36 Holes)

Each event includes food before and after the golf as well as prizes and are played on some of the very best courses in the UK. This is particularly true of the IGC’s summer run, which are still open for booking. On Wednesday 21st August, IGC is visiting Ian Poulter’s home club, Woburn, that will play host to the Ladies British Open Championship earlier in the month.  Participants will be able to play two of the resort’s top courses, the Duchess Course in the morning, and the tougher Marquess Course in the afternoon. Having just hosted the Ladies Open, the courses will be in immaculate condition and will offer a top-quality golfing experience. A coffee and bacon roll breakfast and a 2 course carvery lunch caps off the day.

IGC Summer Event – Sunningdale – Thursday 12th September

On Thursday 12th September, the IGC then goes to Sunningdale, where it has held events for the last 3 years. After registering in the Championship Room, golfers will be treated to a classy Bucks Fizz breakfast, before a morning round on Sunningdale’s scenic New Course. Lunch is a 4-course carvery, with all the condiments and trimmings, filling golfers up before an afternoon 18 holes on Sunningdale’s ancient and prestigious Old Course which will host the Senior British Open in 2020. Afternoon tea and a prize giving ceremony follow after play.

IGC Summer Event – Moor Park – Tuesday 1st October

Last but not least, the IGC cap off their summer season at the luxurious Moor Park. On October 1st, golfers will play the more senior of the 2 courses at the club, the High Course. Long recognised as one of the very top courses in Hertfordshire, if not the whole of England, the High Course has hosted numerous international events including the Bob Hope Classic, the Ladies European Matchplay Championship, the Ladies British Open, the English Seniors Open and the English boys Strokeplay Open Championship (whose past winners include Sandy Lyle and Justin Rose).

With such an incredible variety of top-quality courses and settings on offer, the International Golf Society – London is the pinnacle of what a golfing society should be. The society is easy to join and to book events through and offers a truly premium golfing experience for players of all kinds of backgrounds and levels. With societies like the IGC around, it’s no surprise that more and more golfers are turning to societies to meet their golfing needs.
