Farewell Steve Barr

As captains, stewards and members have come and gone, one person at London Scottish has remained - Steve!

After many years of service, he has decided to hang up his keys to the Pro Shop and hand over to his brother Matthew. Whether you have been a member of London Scottish for 30 years or 3 months, you will agree that Steve is incredibly welcoming and makes you feel at home as soon as you walk into the courtyard.

Although it’s debateable whether he’s played 18 holes at LSGC since Queen Elizabeth first sat on the throne, the club and the course have always been his priority, working hard behind the scenes with the various captains, committees, stewards and greenkeepers over the years to make us all proud to be a member at London Scottish Golf Club.

I hope you join us in wishing Steve all the best for the future and welcoming Matthew back to the club as Head Professional and Secretary - thank you for everything Steve!

London Scottish on YouTube

Earlier this year we hosted Erik Anders Lang and his Adventures in Golf crew as they visited our historic club on Wimbledon Common. We are extremely proud of this video, especially the condition of the course and the members who took part, helping to promote the friendly, welcoming nature of the golf club.

The video is now available on Skratch's YouTube channel via the link below so take a peek:
