Join one of the most vibrant and successful sports in Navy Sport. Golf in the Royal Navy is open to all service members and all abilities.
Time to Tee Off
With 4 levels of golf to choose from, there’s something for everyone in Royal Navy Golf. It’s a great opportunity to connect with other golfers across your region and even represent the Royal Navy at the highest levels.
The Grassroots division is perfect for those picking up a club for the very first time. At the Development level, you’ll deepen your skills and confidence to get a handicap. Players can then move on to the Regional level, where mixed abilities and genders come together to compete at some of the best spots across the UK. From there, Representative squads take shape to play against County standard opposition and inter-service rivals.
We also offer support and training as an R&A Level 2 Rules Official. So, if the nuance of penalty areas, loose impediments, and pace of play interest you – Royal Navy Golf is the best place to be.
