Performance Golf
The Performance Programme at the University of Birmingham is proud to be one of seventeen R&A funded institutions, allowing our Golfers to experience and engage with elite level golf whilst studying for a degree. Around 8 players are selected for the performance squad annually, with access to strength and conditioning sessions and physiotherapy services, in addition to nutrition and sports psychology support. The performance squad are also offered the chance to compete in BUCS Tour and R&A Student Tour Series, which take place at various courses throughout the UK.
Inclusion, Accessibility & Disability Practices
Â
The Golf Club embraces inclusivity by offering training sessions tailored to golfers of all skill levels, from BUCS competitors to development squad members who receive coaching from a qualified instructor. To accommodate individuals with sensory sensitivities, the club organises social events such as meals and mini-golf outings while also reserving quieter practice bays to provide a comfortable training environment.
Â
Accessibility is a key focus, with wheelchair-friendly pathways, locker rooms, and rest areas at the club’s home course. Welfare officers are available to provide mental health support, ensuring members feel supported in balancing academics and sport. Additionally, the driving range features automated tee height and ball dispensers, removing physical barriers for those with mobility limitations. The club’s recently submitted Golf Club Improvement Plan further highlights ongoing efforts to create an inclusive and safe sporting environment.
