Welcome to BWGC

The Bangkok Wanderers Golf Club is a friendly society comprised of fairly eclectic, sometimes eccentric, individuals living in and around Bangkok. We come together twice a month or so for fun golf tournaments, and during each year wander to some of Thailand's finest golf courses. Membership is open and a Wanderers handicap is given after submitting cards at three events.

Club throwing and caddie abuse

Every now and then we are forced to remind members that throwing clubs and shouting at caddies is not tolerated by BWGC. Not only does it upset the caddie and other players, it also brings the BWGC into disrepute with the course, which affects everybody. Heed the wise words of Dennis Hutchinson: "With grace oozing from every pore, lower the club gently to the floor." Otherwise, we will take action against offenders.

2012 Matchplay Competition

The draw for the 2012 Matchplay was held at Vintage on Feb 4th. Please check the draw and see who your partner is. An email will be sent to you with your partner's email address. You are encouraged to arrange your matches promptly. Make sure you read the rules carefully before playing your match. → Go to the Matchplay page.
