A study commissioned by the European Tour found “just over a fifth of the UK engaged with some form of golf over the last 12 months.” Not the old traditional golf of elite clubs, long rounds, little coaching and poor facilities, but a more modern, easily accessed, quicker to play, fun game.

Golf where you can pay and play a “quick nine holes” if you’re short on time. Purpose built driving ranges open day and night, in all weathers. Coaching for everyone, whatever your age or ability designed around you having fun.

This is exactly the kind of golf you’ll discover at Sherdons Golf Centre.

“Giving modern golfers exactly what they want”

Since acquiring Sherdons Golf Centre, Richard Ballard PGA Professional and GGU County Coach is well on the way to making Sherdons one of the best golf facilities in Gloucestershire.

“Sherdons is my chance to give modern golfers exactly what they want” remarks Richard. We all lead busy lives, so a nine hole course is a real asset to golfers keen to have a game with little time to spare. Suddenly a quick game at the weekend or during the week in the evening becomes possible.

Continually investing in the quality of its Manor Course, making it a real challenge for golfers of all abilities, has been an essential part of its increasing popularity. So has making it as easy as possible to book a tee time either online via their website – sherdons.co.uk – or by calling reception on 01684 274782.

In Richard’s opinion, Sherdons also boasts one of the best driving ranges in Gloucestershire. 325 yards long, 160 yards wide, with 20 outdoor bays and ample parking – there’s plenty of room for everyone.

All the covered bays feature either PowerTees or TrueStrike mats that feel like you are playing off grass. Top quality Srixon, two-piece full flight range balls offer a noticeable difference when you practice, and floodlights allow busy golfers to practice until 9pm during the week.

What Richard thinks really sets Sherdons apart as a Golf Centre is the way it has focused on making it a local venue where everyone is always welcome. Whatever your age, whatever your ability, you can go along, have some fun and get into golf.

A busy teaching academy

If you are serious about your golf, in addition to the popular driving range there’s a busy teaching academy, offering adult and junior one-to-one lessons with state of the art analysis, tailored player development programmes and playing lessons to lower your scores.

If you’ve never played before or not for a long time, Sherdons is an ideal place to start. A family friendly venue with free club hire available, it’s much easier than you probably think to get into golf. Open to the public as a pay and play facility, it also has a Golf Club that has seen membership rise significantly over the last 12 months (bucking national trends), local golfers recognising the difference on offer, and the investment being made in a more modern, fun for all game.
