All welcome at veterans golf

March 6, 2026

Add a touch of humour, a few fairway swings, the odd putt, some old mates — even visitors — and you’ve got Vets Golf.

Open to any 9- or 18-hole golfer aged 50 years young or older who’s looking for a regular weekly hit, this could be just the thing.

Waikato Vets officially kicked off on February 3, hosting Pat from the Maidenhead Club in England, who thoroughly enjoyed her round on Raglan’s rolling course.

“I was made to feel most welcome. Everyone was very friendly and encouraging,” said Pat.

Vets also offer $10 lunch days, with the first scheduled for March 3 — sure to be a gourmet delight. Members are also invited to “shake their shamrocks” for St Patrick’s Day on Tuesday, March 17.

Tee times:

• 18-hole players — 9.00am tee-off

• 9-hole players — 11.00am tee-off
