Lobden Golf Club
Founded 17th May 1888
Welcome to the official web site of
Lobden Golf Club
Located high on the south Pennine moors above Whitworth, Lobden Golf
Club offers spectacular views, and welcomes members and visitors
alike.
Since 1888 Lobden has been challenging golfers from near and far,
testing players of all abilities in this ancient game. Although the
course has changed somewhat since it was founded, the fundamentals
of the course have been kept, rewarding skill and judgment above
distance, in empathy to the principals laid out by our forefathers.
Though not a long course compared to some of today’s standards, the
prevailing winds can punish unwary golfers who must balance risk
against reward.
Lobden has a very long history of being
a competitive club, with a considerable array of competitions throughout the
year for Gentlemen, Lady, Senior and Junior members. Not to
mention Open competitions, Invitations and hosting two local annual
golfing events in aid of 'Cancer Research UK'.
There's the Seniors tour for the self proclaimed "Owd-Gits", and
lest we forgetting the 'dreaded
dummy' for those winter league blues. There's something for everyone
of all year round - even if its just to meet up with friends and relax
in the club-house bar or have a game of snooker.
Visiting parties are requested to contact the club secretary at the above address beforehand to discus their requirements, or email the club with your name and contact address & telephone number so we can quickly respond
