Midlands Matchplay Championship

Amateur golfers in the Midlands have never had it so good when it comes to playing competitive golf and the launch of the new Golfing Days Midlands Matchplay Championship only adds to that theory.

The Midlands Matchplay is a season-long knockout competition initially played on a regional basis. There is an Individual & Betterball Pairs competition open to members of a golf club in the Midlands with an active CONGU handicap.

Golfers are allocated into one of four regions (North, East, South & West) based on their golf clubs location:
  • North - Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire
  • South - Warwickshire & Worcestershire
  • East - Leicestershire & Northamptonshire
  • West - West Midlands & Staffordshire

The first round is played over 36 holes on a 'home & away' basis so each entrant is guaranteed 2 games. Entry is excellent value at just £15 for the singles and £25 per pair for the doubles.

Winners of each tie will continue to compete against their fellow golfers to try and win their region.

The regional winners qualify through to the Midlands Final at the beautiful Longcliffe Golf Club in October where they will compete for fantastic cash vouchers.



Midlands & Cotswold Amateur Golf Tours
Golfing Days also run a very successful Midlands Amateur Golf Tour with events held at some of the best 'hidden gem' golf courses. The first event of the season at The Forest of Arden Golf Club (Friday 18th February) is fast approaching with only a few places remaining.

A Cotswolds Amateur Golf Tour has also been launched in 2011 to support the Midland series and kicks-off shortly at The Oxfordshire (Friday 11th March).
