The 2026 British Speedgolf Championship
will return to Sunningdale Heath Golf Club
on Sunday 6th September 2026 for a 4th Year!
The British Speedgolf Championships are one of the most unique events in the British Golfing Calendar, welcome to a faster pace of golf: Speedgolf!
The 2026 British Speedgolf Championship will return to the magnificent Sunningdale Heath Golf Club, near Ascot on Sunday 6 September 2026. A maximum field of 70 players, will compete in the same format as last year on this challenging but compact course. The Challenge in Speedgolf is finding the sweet spot of pace with performance, so it is not just speed! Following the introduction of the cut last year, the top-performing 20 speedgolfers from any category will proceed to play 36 holes (R2 in the early afternoon) and challenge for the overall British Speedgolf Championship Title.
With a maximum field of 70 and expected high demand. Around 50 places will be offered to top-performing players from last year who will be invited to register. For those in the far corners of the UK or overseas, British Speedgolf will offer a very limited number of ‘Wild Card’ entries based on player credentials. There will also be ringfenced places to ensure there is representation for Women and Juniors. The bulk of those who want to compete are the men including Seniors (50 or over) so we strongly suggest those players look at the qualification route to secure the remaining spots, also providing valuable championship preparation and training. The Qualification event will be hosted at Wildernesse Golf Club, near Sevenoaks in Kent on Friday 17 July, from 8.00 am playing over 14 holes, which avoids the road crossings and also gives a shorter running distance which will provide scores more comparable with those achieved at Sunningdale Heath. There is just 30 places, which will fill up on a first served basis, so don’t delay in securing a place. Alternatively register your interest to compete here to be in for a chance of a Wild Card place, but those who can make it should aim for the Qualifier.
We remain committed to keeping the Championship inclusive, with clear pathways for both returning and new players. See this from Golf Shake
