Formby Ladies Golf Club

read moreFormby Ladies Golf Club, founded in 1896, is situated at the heart of "England's Golf Coast", a 30 mile stretch of fabulous Lancashire coastline. Here you will find twenty links golf courses, including three Royals, our near neighbour Royal Birkdale, Royal Lytham to the north and Royal Liverpool to the south. It is a unique ladies only members' club, offering a truly testing links course as well as a warm, welcoming atmosphere to visitors, with first class facilities and excellent catering. Everything needed for a memorable day!

read moreAs an independent Ladies' Club, we are in the unique position of being able to run competitions whenever we choose. In addition, therefore, to running competitions during the week, we have more than 30 competitions at weekends, which is of great benefit to our working members. Moreover, as we have deliberately limited the number of evening presentations, members can play weekday competitions in the evenings during the summer months. We run several teams for our competitive golfers: a Scratch Team, three Handicap Teams, a Bronze Team, and the 3rd Team.

read moreSet amongst the pine trees and sand dunes of the Lancashire Coast, the course provides a wonderfully varied challenge to the visitor. From the red markers, the course is 5,356 yards (4,897 metres) with a Standard Scratch Score of 71. The tight fairways and well guarded greens demand skill and precision from golfers of all levels. Indigenous heather protects much of the rough and great caution is required at many holes. There is splendid contrast to be found on the Formby Ladies course. Those holes lying on the flat landward side entice players into error by their misleading air of innocence; while the picturesque adventurous holes lying among the sandhills and the pine woods provide many golfing challenges.
