East Berkshire Golf Club

East Berkshire Golf Course was established in 1903 and designed by Peter Paxton as a heathland course; it has since evolved into a tree-lined parkland layout. The course utilizes the natural water courses and heather to create hazards, which adds to the challenge despite its 6,200-yard length.

Notable features include fast, undulating greens, strategically placed doglegs, and well-defined semi-rough areas that guide players on the driving portions of the course. Greenside hazards are positioned to penalize wayward shots, emphasizing the importance of accuracy and strategy.

Famous golfers such as Bobby Locke, Gary Player, and Luke Donald have visited East Berkshire, with Donald participating in the club's premier amateur competition, 'The Stag'. The course record is a 63, set by Scott Fallon, highlighting the course's potential for high-level competitive play.

The course is known for hosting the annual East Berkshire Stag competition, which has proven to be a real test for competitors, requiring both precision striking and a disciplined approach to course management. Past winners of 'The Stag' include notable professional golfer Sandy Lyle in 1976.
