Welcome to the BlueBell Golf Society (1973) m/c website.
The BlueBell society is one of the longest existing golf societies in the Manchester area.
It was formed way back in 1973 at the BlueBell public house in Moston, Manchester. Some of the
founding members are still active in the society and its through their efforts that it enjoys continued
success today. The original membership was restricted in numbers and therefore membership
became coveted and joining was a case of filling "dead mans shoes".
Nowadays the BlueBell is based at Blackley Golf Club,Manchester,the membership is strong with
around 40 playing members who maintain the original values of the gentlemens game,playing at
various courses round the country,culminating in the End of Season Tour (not so gentlemanly)
which this year visits South West Scotland based at Dumfries.
One of the main aims of the society is raising funds for local charities. The serving
Captain will nominate his designated charity at the AGM and throughout the year funds are raised
in support. Over the years many thousands of pounds have been raised for a variety of great and
deserving causes. This year our captain Mr Kevin Baron, has chosen to raise funds for the National Deaf Children's Society.
We hope our members enjoy their golf and look forward to their continued support in making this year another success.
