Kent Golf Union

ANNOUNCEMENT: Coronavirus – Covid 19

Visit here for the latest update from England Golf regarding COVID-19

In line with guidance from the Government to avoid where possible ‘social gathering’ and non-essential travel, we will be suspending all Kent Golf Union organised events until 27th April 2020. This includes all adult and junior competitions, matches and squad training sessions (this extends to Kent Golf Approved Junior Academy Sessions and the Invicta 10s) that fall between now and this date. We are also cancelling all KGU knock-out competitions, competitors have been advised. This decision has not been taken lightly and we must work to ensure the health and wellbeing of our members, players, staff and volunteers as well as all of those who work at our host golf clubs.

We will review the situation in mid April and advise whether an extension is required or not.

The South Eastern Group have today announced that their Junior Championship due to be held on 27th May has been cancelled. They have also suspended the South East Group League and thus matches are cancelled. This will be reviewed by them by the end of May.

Welcome to the Kent Golf website

Kent Golf was established to promote, administer and encourage the development of, and participation in, Amateur Golf in Kent. We exist to provide assistance to all Clubs throughout Kent in the management of the game and to act as the ruling authority on the game within the County. We also co-operate with England Golf and other County Golf Unions and Ladies Golf Associations on matters relating to the administration, promotion and playing of Amateur Golf. Within the county, we also have responsibility for overseeing official handicaps and for rating courses under the USGA slope rating system. All of the directors are volunteers, committing time to such responsibilities.
