H4H Leicestershire Golf Leagues

The idea of a League competition was put forward in 2013 because it was felt that a renewed sense of competitiveness was needed in Local Club Competitions.  Dave Gray Captain of Longcliffe Golf Club 2014, initiated the idea of a League to be played by four local Clubs competing against each other regularly, in a friendly but competitive way, with a trophy to be awarded to the top Team at the end of each year, and with a designated charity to benefit from it.  With the help of Glen Willis Kirby Muxloe Captain 2014, Ian Agar Rothley Park Captain 2014 and Mike Atkins Birstall Captain 2014 the idea became reality in Spring 2014. In 2023 through the efforts of Gary Copley Kilworth Vice Captain, Martin Dickinson Lutterworth Golf Club, David Fray Hinckley Captain and Steve Hornsby Cosby Vice Captain a H4H South League will commence.

The 'A' Team designation was decided upon as there is already a Scratch Team Competition that is widely participated in, but Players of a low but not Scratch handicap had no competitive Inter Club Competition to play in. 

In 2017 we decided to continue our support for Injured Service Personnel by supporting more golf orientated Veterans charities. From 2020 onwards our support is for Battleback Golf.

From 2023 the founding league will be known as H4H North It consists of:

LONGCLIFFE GOLF CLUB

BIRSTALL GOLF CLUB

ROTHLEY PARK GOLF CLUB

KIRBY MUXLOE GOLF CLUB

H4H League South will commence consisting of:

KILWORTH SPRINGS GOLF CLUB

LUTTERWORTH GOLF CLUB

HINCKLEY GOLF CLUB

COSBY GOLF CLUB

The web site is open to all to look at and we hope it will spur on more of you to follow in our footsteps.  Please submit your photo's for the gallery by sending them to dave.gray3@sky.com
