made out to The Old Shirburnian Golf Society.

As an incentive to younger OS, the Society funds two levels of subsidy. Those under the age of 27 on Jan 1 pay a maximum of £30 for golf and lunch, and those under 32 pay a maximum of £60 for golf and lunch. This doesn't include beer or wine but it still represents about the best value around for a days golf on some of the finest courses in the country. Click here for more information
