Aileen is starting social golf again on Tues 23rd April at 10am; but please don’t wait until then before you go and hit a ball.
The Thursday Morning sessions start on the 9th May – The focus will be on the not-so-confident beginners – however anyone can join in then too.
Live Borders are subsidising 2 coaching sessions with Frank Scott for six people at a time for a fiver a head – just like last year – first come/first served. Please let me know if you are interested and any morning or evening that wouldn’t suit you. He doesn’t teach in the afternoon.
Looking forward to seeing you all on the course again.

A brief History
Lauder Golf Course is a nine hole golf course played off 17 tees, visitors are permitted to play off the back tees; making Lauder one of the fairest tests of golf in ‘The Scottish Borders’. Situated on gently sloping parkland providing a real challenge to your game, combined with stunning views of the Lauderdale District with the rich history of a course founded in 1896 it makes for an excellent days golfing in The Scottish Borders. With feature holes like ‘The Wood’ and ‘The Quarry’, it will test low handicap golfers; as well as provide a good days golf for those of us with more shots to play with. The initial layout of the course was supervised by Mr. Willie Park, Jnr. British Open Champion in 1887 and 1889. The professional course record of 70 is held by him and this has stood since 1905. The club have a very active membership which is drawn from all parts of the Borders and Edinburgh area, visitors are very welcome to accept our unique ‘Borders Hospitality’.
