THE ASSOCIATION OF JAMES BRAID COURSES

Falkirk Golf Club is part of the THE ASSOCIATION OF JAMES BRAID COURSES this gives you access to other participating James Braid Golf Courses,

The Association of James Braid Courses started in 2009, the association has now attracted over a three hundred member clubs from the north of Scotland, to Ireland, Wales, all areas of England and one in New York. A full list of members is attached.

Courses either have to have been designed by Braid or redesigned or altered by him to be eligible to join. In the course of his life he was involved in designing or redesigning 411 courses, of these courses 39 are now defunct and 6 were plans only.

He was also the Professional at Romford for eight years and from 1904 till his death in 1950 at Walton Heath. In addition he won the Open five times, plus numerous other competitions, formed the PGA with Taylor and Vardon and is credited with inventing the ‘dogleg’.

The advantages of being a member of the association is that the members of the clubs, can play at all the other member clubs for reduced green fee, subject to tee availability, thereby hopefully increasing the awareness of Braid’s work and of course the man himself.
