During the spring and
summer evenings of 1950, a number of members keen on the game were
seen knocking a golf ball round the Ground, and the idea of laying
out a nine hole pitch and putt Course was considered. However, there
were difficulties - not the least being that the traditional cover
drive with a seven iron could spell danger for motorists and nearby
residents - so it was decided to invite those interested to assemble
at Whitewebbs Golf Course in North Enfield for regular evening
games.
The following year, 1951, the Society officially came into being.
Its objects to provide adequate but perhaps more relaxed exercise
for those not necessarily wishing to continue playing cricket, and
to retain the good fellowship so far enjoyed without losing their
affinity to, and first love, the Cricket Club. Their constitution as
a self-managing body is somewhat different in that they have a
President instead of a Chairman.
In 1957, an even more local venue became available, and the long and
friendly association with the
Bush
Hill Park Golf Club began, to the
mutual benefit of both.
Over the years, the Society has been of much financial benefit to
the parent Club.

Society Handicaps 2008
As provided by Tony Holding,
Handicap Secretary
Tony has taken advice from the Professional at Bush Hill Park
regarding handicap adjustments. There should be no adjustment
for those scoring 36-38 points (buffer zone). Tony has gone
back over the previous competitions and adjusted handicaps
accordingly. Handicaps will, in future, be adjusted upwards
for those scoring less than 36 points and downwards for those
scoring more than 38
