Like its governing body, England Golf, the Suffolk Golf Union was formed in 1924. A non-profit organization, it devotes its resources to the administration of amateur golf in Suffolk.
Its work covers the assessment of courses for Standard Scratch Scores, handicapping, County Championships, inter-club matchplay events, junior golf and provides advice and guidance on a wide range of golf-related subjects.
This website enhances the other means of communication, via club noticeboards and The Suffolk Golfer magazine which it will continue to employ.
