Welcome to Clandon Regis

Clandon Regis is proud to have gained the reputation as ‘Surrey’s friendliest club’. Since Clandon Regis became a members’ owned club on May 31, 1996, the Club has gone from strength to strength. It is a challenging course to golfers of all abilities. With a par of 72 and 6485 yards off the back tees, it has a number of holes that require carries over water and some dog legs which demand careful club selection.

The course has no temporary tees or greens and is playable all year round. The members, led by their volunteer board of directors and dedicated committees, are determined to keep Clandon Regis at the forefront of golfing.

Why not host your party or celebration in the beautiful surroundings of our golf course.

Our restaurant is available for private hire, whatever the occasion. Look at our Weddings and Functions page or contact the club for more information.

Clandon Regis Golf Club offers something for everyone - from experienced players to beginners. It is one of only four clubs in Surrey to have achieved the GolfMark and ClubMark award. GolfMark is a National Scheme that

identifies and recognises Junior and Adult Beginner friendly golf facilities.

This distinguishes Clandon Regis as a safe and well organised environment where staff and volunteers are trained to support the need of Juniors and beginners.

Pay us a visit and experience the warm Clandon Regis welcome for yourself.

The Course

Clandon Regis Golf Course is a pleasure to play. Set in 170 acres of prime Surrey parkland, the 6485 yard par 72 golf course utilises the natural undulations of the landscape and, whilst not flat, there are no ‘cardiac’ hills.

Natural and manmade lakes and strategically placed bunkers ensure that Clandon Regis is a good test of golf for players of all abilities.

The construction of the course is of the highest standard. The greens and tees meet full USGA specifications. The course was built into the existing parkland of the Clandon Regis Estate and all its mature trees have been retained.

Since the completion of the course, several thousand more trees and shrubs have been planted. making this not only a challenging course to play, but also a highly scenic one.

Our highly qualified, green keeping staff are constantly looking for ways to improve the ‘playability’ and appearance of this course.

The Club’s History

Opened in June 1994, Clandon Regis Golf Club is built into the historic parkland of the Clandon Regis Estate, near Guildford. The golf course was designed by David Williams consultant architect to the European Tour for many years. Clandon Regis quickly earned the status of Championship Course following its choice for the final of the PGA Southern Professional Championship in 1995, and then again in 1996.

You could say that the members liked the club so much, they bought it, and in 1996 they acquired full ownership from the previous proprietor.

The new owners/members have ensured that Clandon Regis is rapidly becoming one of Surrey’s finest courses.

Take the Course Tour

Hole 1

Hole 3

Hole 5

A nice gentle starting hole. The second shot is to an uphill green, so always play one more club than you think.

The safe drive is left of centre to avoid the two bunkers down the right. Then avoid the hidden bunker on the right of the three tiered green which dips sharply in the middle.

Beware of the ditch on the left, approaching the green, which is a lateral water hazard. The right-to-left borrow of the green is far greater than is apparent.

Hole 4

Hole 6

The ditch is blind from the Men’s medal tee.

A long drive aimed at the marker is needed to make it in two. A larger bunker on the left protects a left-to-right sloping green.

A deceptive short par 3 which has the green well guarded by hidden bunkers in the front, to the right and at the back.

Hole 2 A partially blind tee shot to a front-to-back sloping two tiered green heavily bunkered to the right. Over hit and a ditch or “out of bounds” awaits.

www.clandonregis-golfclub.co.uk 11

Take the Course Tour

(continued)

Hole 7

Hole 9

Hole 11

Watch out for the “out of bounds” to the right of the fairway from tee-to-green. Bunkers left and right protect the way into this green which slopes heavily from left-to-right.

Beware the “out of bounds” to the right of the fairway. A well hit tee shot aimed left of the green sets up the best approach to this shallow heavily bunkered green.

One of our signature holes. A long carry over water to an undulating green.

Hole 8

Hole 10

Bunkers protect both sides of the fairway while two hidden bunkers short of the green await the “ultra safe”. The green slopes backto-front and is not easy to read.

Accuracy is required here, particularly from the Men’s medal tee, to navigate the narrow gap in the trees and avoid the “out of bounds”. Otherwise an easy par 4.

12 www.clandonregis-golfclub.co.uk

Hole 12 A straight forward par 5 but the green is well guarded by bunkers and slopes from backtofront. Attack this hole.

Hole 13

Hole 15

Hole 17

Drive left of centre but avoid the bunkers on the side of the fairway which are hidden from the Men’s medal tee. Otherwise, not a difficult hole. The green slopes from back-to-front.

An accommodating par 5 but a well-directed second shot is needed to avoid the two large trees protecting the approach to the green.

The green slopes from back-to-front.

The surrounding trees make the hole deceptively long, so don’t under club. A two tiered green sloping from back-to-front.

Hole 14

Hole 16

A long drive must avoid the “out of bounds” to the left of the fairway and the lateral water hazard to the right. This still leaves an heroic approach short to a steep back-to-front sloping green well-guarded by water and sand.

An approach shot right of the flag is the best option to avoid the hidden bunkers in front and the left of the green. The green slopes slightly from back-to-front.

A truly spectacular hole to finish with. A long drive, then only a short-to-mid iron shot, but avoid the lake and the bunkers to the right and the back of the green. The green and surrounds slope steeply to the left-to-right.

Hole 18

Local Wildlife

At Clandon Regis we have a group of volunteer members working tirelessly to protect wildlife and increase and improve the stock of trees around the course. We are fortunate to have a good starting point with ponds, some fine stands of trees and hedgerows rife with wildlife. However, still looking to improve the landscape, we started the Conservation Fund which generates money for tree-planting, bulb-growing etc.

Amongst the first efforts was a beautiful avenue of ornamental pear trees at the entrance and, by the 16th green, willows with red stems that glow in winter. As stewards of some very fine trees, we need to provide successors for these as well as progressively replacing or supplementing specimens which are ‘below par’.

The Conservation Trophy - a twice a year competition - was started as a fundraiser for trees, hedgerows and wildlife. It is a nonqualifying competition aimed at getting

as many members involved to increase funds and gain support. Since the Conservation Fund began, fund raising events and competitions continue to raise money towards the upkeep of the environment around the course.

In 2001, a “sponsor a tree” initiative began which enabled the planting of the pear tree avenue along the drive and at various other sites around the course.

Championships and Events

At Clandon Regis we have four well established Open Competitions across the sections. Most of these are played in August and offer a fun and friendly day out for all.

Our Seniors’ Open is open to anyone over the age of 55 who holds an active handicap.

In 2013 we will hold our 9th annual event which has always been oversubscribed. This is an 18-hole Stableford event with prizes for the winning team and individuals. It includes coffee and bacon rolls on arrival, a shotgun start competition, followed by lunch and

presentations. Entrants are taken in teams of 4 or other variations that can then be mixed with other entrants to make a team.

Our Ladies’ Open, now in its fourth year, also draws a full field. A similar type of day as the Seniors’ Open, it is an 18-holes Aggregate Stableford Competition played in teams of three and also includes coffee and danish pastries on arrival and a buffet lunch.

We also have Open competitions for both Juniors and Men. The Juniors’ event, also held in August, is an individual 18-hole

Medal open to all boys and girls under the age of 18, and is part of the Surrey Order of Merit Competition and Daily Telegraph Qualifier. The Mens’ Open, a relatively new event in comparison, is held on a Sunday in July and comprises a 36 hole Scratch Medal competition with a full day’s catering and prize giving.

Men The Men’s section competes for many prestigious cups and trophies throughout the year. Some are stand-alone competitions, with others spanning over a period of months or even 36 hole events at the weekend. Generally, the Men play on Wednesdays and at the weekends, where a predominately strong field of entrants tee off from 8am.

months. These are all day roll ups that allow members to turn up at any point during the day and encourage a large field to be able to get their scores entered. The Collett Cup is a 36-hole Medal, generally played on a Saturday in May - a handicap event played in handicap order for the first round, which then determines your afternoon start time as the leaders will tee off last.

Along with the Club Championships, many highly contested trophies include the Danny Cup, played over 9 rounds across the summer

Weekend competitions are largely sign-up competitions, all done online. See our website for more details. A high handicap group meet

every other Wednesday morning, with the 1st tee reserved 09.30 – 10.45. This group is to help those new to the game or club or who do not have a handicap, or those who have been allocated one above 24. They are a friendly bunch who meet in the clubhouse first thing, and then go on to play 9 holes to work on their handicap and improve their game. This is also an opportunity to meet other members and to get a card marked to submit for an initial handicap allocation.

Ladies The Ladies’ section is very active and friendly, with many new ladies commenting on how quickly they have settled in and feel welcomed by so many members. Tuesday is our Ladies’ day again, with various competitions and events running throughout the year. Also with a start time of 8am, strong fields enable them to fill the tee until approx. 11am most weeks.

Ladies also have a weekend slot, playing each week on alternate Saturdays or Sundays.

30 www.clandonregis-golfclub.co.uk

In the summer months, a relaxed 9 hole Stableford competition is organised, twice monthly, on Thursday mornings. As with the Men, the Ladies have their “36 Club” - a group of ladies who have a high handicap and wish to play with people of the same ability before playing in the major competitions. The Ladies also use the online facility for competition sign-up and have a comprehensive section on the club website.

They very much enjoy an active social side of the club, organising away days and nights to other clubs and attractions, arranging rules afternoons and Christmas fayres. Once a year the committee arrange an exchange day in which we open our Tuesday mornings to another club and our ladies play their course.

Juniors At Clandon Regis we are keen to encourage and develop active participation in golf by young people and to encourage Junior membership of the Club. Our professional team offers support where it can, including group coaching sessions in the school holidays, private tuition throughout the year, along with words of support and encouragement from fellow members of all ages.

Our Aim… • To provide access for all Junior Members and potential Junior Members to the Clandon Regis Junior Golf Academy.

• To provide coaching for all Junior Members through regular Group Coaching and individual lessons by the Club’s Professional Staff.

• To enable Junior Members to obtain an Official Handicap as soon as they have demonstrated appropriate ability and knowledge of the principal Rules of Golf and golf course etiquette.

• To provide competitions for Junior Members to enable them to obtain and maintain an Official Handicap.

• To provide interclub friendly matches and league matches for Junior Members to introduce them to other local golf courses.

• To allow Junior Members with an Official Handicap to participate in appropriate Men’s & Ladies’ Section competitions and Mixed Competitions.

Junior members have achieved much over the years. Many have moved on to become club champions or winners of other prestigious competitions. This is reflected in the team events. In 2012, the Junior team were winners of the 90s League Tournament.

Since most of the players are between only 12 and 15 years of age, this bodes well for the future of Junior golf at Clandon Regis.

Seniors The Seniors’ Section provides a regular programme of friendly competitions and matches against other local golf clubs and social events for all male members of the club aged 55 or over. It has a formal written constitution and is administered by an annually elected Chairman and Committee who try to cater for the needs of all Senior Members, regardless of playing abilities.

Seniors’ competitions normally take place on Monday mornings throughout the year.

A 9-hole competition has recently been

introduced for those Seniors not wanting to play the full 18 holes. The Monday morning competitions vary in format, be it a Stableford, a Medal, a Four Ball Better Ball, a Texas Scramble or Three Clubs and a Putter etc.

In spring, summer and autumn we have many competitions, which include a more formal Stableford, a scratch competition for the Duhig Trophy, a handicap competition for the Rajan Shield and a knockout competition for the Mabbs Trophy, with those eliminated in the first two rounds then competing for the Mabbs

Plate. There are also two pairs competitions: a Summer League and a Winter League.

The Seniors play an annual match against The Club Staff and play against the Ladies for the Nicholls Plate in the spring and autumn of each year. They have a full programme of friendly matches against other local golf clubs on a home and away basis.

Social events are an important part of the Seniors Section’s activities. In December there is an evening dinner to which members invite their ladies.

With our Social Committee and Functions team providing various sources of entertainment throughout the year, there is as much opportunity for members to get involved in the Clubhouse as on the course. We host every kind of occasion from dinner dances, quiz nights, summer balls, skittles evenings and BBQs. Some of our more regular, and always popular, events include our Burns’ Night Supper, full of traditional words and a true Scottish menu and our Annual Carol Festival which always

gets everyone into the Christmas spirit and ready for our Children’s Party with a visit from Santa Clause. Finally, our New Year’s Eve Dinner dance and casino evening always welcomes the New Year with a bang!

Bistro Evenings offer a cosy restaurant atmosphere where you can enjoy outstanding food created by our top chefs. Book early to avoid disappointment.

Enjoy a traditional roast at our Sunday Carveries which run throughout the winter

months. Members, friends and family can choose from one two or three courses at amazing value.

Other activities include duplicate bridge evenings, Charity evenings of different varieties, the longest day challenge, our disco, themed evenings and Abba evenings.

Most recently, the “Clandon Cruise” evening saw members climb aboard for an elegant evening including cocktails, a sumptuous meal, entertainment and dancing.

Bar and Catering

As a members’ club the Clubhouse and the facilities are available for use all year round, with Christmas Day being the only day we are closed.

A fully stocked bar awaits the golfer for a swift half, a nice glass of wine, a hot chocolate or coffee before, or after, their game. Generally, the bar and kitchen are open from 9 am, serving a range of items from Bacon Rolls to get you started, a tasty Panini for lunch or a traditional freshly battered Fish & Chips meal on a Friday! A full Bar menu along with a range of daily specials is available until 5pm with the bar closing at normal hours in the summer months. (These opening hours are slightly reduced during the winter period).

With our Clubhouse looking out over the 18th green and lake, what better place to sit back or contemplate your game, either on the patio adjacent to the Clubhouse or tucked up inside, next to the roaring fire.
