Ladies Golf at Porters Park Golf Club

Porters Park has a thriving ladies section of about 100 playing members about 60 of whom play regularly on a Tuesday, with a Competition each week. Handicaps range from 3 – 36 and the age range is very varied.. We compete each year in the Pearson against other clubs in Hertfordshire with the winning team going forward to play against the winners from Kent, Surrey and Middlesex, PPGC last won this in 1997. On a lighter note, there are opportunities to play surrounding courses with our friendly match fixtures.

As well as the golf we do have a strong bridge section and league.

BUSINESS LADIES

We have approximately 22 business ladies who play their competitions at the weekend and have the opportunity to play cup competitions on a Tuesday if they so wish. At the end of the season they compete for the Business Ladies Cup. They are a friendly group of ladies who enjoy their golf.

SCRATCH TEAM

We have two teams in the league – A and B – not many clubs have two teams. There are 5 ladies in each team, playing off scratch, competing against other clubs in Hertfordshire for the Ovaltine Cup.

LADIES ACADEMY

We have run an Academy for two years for ladies who have not played golf before or those who would like to come back to the game. They have group lessons with the Pro. David Gleeson (beginners and intermediates). When David feels they are competent enough to play the course he will recommend them to join the Academy which entitles applicants to 12 rounds of 9 holes of golf after 5pm for a two month period. There is then the option to join PPGC subject to the usual interviews and play-ins.
