Get into Golf

Members of the GIG scheme can enjoy the wonderful opportunity to use the New Club House, Wee Course and practice facility, while also receiving, within their North Berwick Golf Club package, coaching from Katy McNicoll, one of our resident Professionals.

From the Wee Course Hub we run several ‘just for fun’ competitions, as well as a full calendar of ‘turn ups’ all through the year.

These events are all about enjoyment and laughter, while building relationships with fellow players. There is even a glass of fizz and canapés at the end of a couple of our Get Into Golf seasonal gatherings.

Our ladies section is also integrating some of the more experienced players within GIG into some of their especially light-hearted competitions on the main course, which is great to see.

We have around 50 members currently in the popular programme, with new places are offered annually in January, and the scheme lasts for two years. Where for many clubs this marks the end of the journey, North Berwick Golf Club have initiated a Get Into Golf Graduate scheme to follow our original offering. This will allow those who wish to carry on playing at the Wee Course, using the clubhouse and the practice facilities indefinitely.

As a bridge between learning to play, or returning to the game and obtaining full Membership, we believe this is a fantastic chance to stay involved in the game and, of course, with the Club.

If you know of anyone who would like to take up the game or would like to return to it after a sabbatical, please tell them to contact either Iain Prime in the main office or Katy McNicoll in the Professionals shop.

The good news is we still have plenty of spaces available for 2024… however, as in the past, these will be sure to go quickly.
