Welcome to Barlaston Golf Club

Barlaston Golf Club nestles alongside the River Trent just south of Stoke on Trent, in Staffordshire – about 1 hour drive from Birmingham or Manchester.

Designed by Peter Alliss – TV commentator and former Ryder Cup player -  in 1977, built on rolling meadowland, the course is described as a ‘little beauty’….

A par 69 over 5,801 yards long with some testing water hazards to conquer – Barlaston will set you some wonderful challenges.  No matter what your handicap you will face a superb test of golf – the course rarely plays the same on morning and afternoon rounds!

European Tour Star, World No 43 and former Barlaston Junior Member David Lynn (November 2012) “Very fond memories of Barlaston and I owe an awful lot to the place. They are very tolerant of junior golf there.” The layout “Its a very strategic course and really makes you think, it taught me how to course manage and is a lot of fun. I hope to come back and play there very soon.” Regards David.

Captain’s Message

Welcome to members old and new to the 2013 golf season and a special welcome to our new Club Professional Darren Martin.

There have been a number of changes at the club recently and I believe that this year is an opportunity for a new beginning.

I feel very honoured to be representing our club as Captain and I look forward to being of service to all members. This is a very challenging but interesting time and I would ask you to join with me in supporting the club and those who give their time to provide us with such wonderful facilities.

Above all else I wish you enjoyment from your golf and I would ask that you help other members and visitors to enjoy theirs. Please recognise that we are amateurs and of varying abilities that all play for enjoyment, so I would ask you to be respectful and patient. Please give priority and be courteous to our green staff that take pride in presenting a golf course which is both fair and challenging, help them to look after the course by repairing pitch marks and replacing divots.

My very best wishes.

Andrew Blackhurst – Captain 2013
