Seniors are aged 50+ and Surrey has a number of teams competing in both scratch and handicap matches. If you are interested in playing senior match golf, please contact one of the team managers below.
This competition was estabalished in 2014 by Scynthia Larsen who identified a gap in the Surrey Senior calendar for scratch team golf. She set up the league with four other counties and presented the Mulligan Larsen Bowl as the trophy.
Surrey play five counties in the Senior Scratch League: Kent, Middlesex, Sussex, Hampshire and Essex. Each county fields a team of six players and the format is 18 holes scratch match play. All matches are played between May and the end of September, with a Jamboree event at the end of the season. To read the league rules, click here
The selection criteria for the Senior Scratch League team is driven primarily by handicap but will also take into account match play performance. The Senior Scratch Team Captain will aim to offer a range of players the opportunity to compete in the Senior Scratch League matches. All players must be qualifying seniors (aged 50+) on the day of the match and be a member of a club affiliated to Surrey.
The Surrey Senior Team Captain for these matches is Belinda Pope
The Senior team is also invited to winter training sessions with the 1st and 2nd team plus some dedicated short game practice sessions.
