About Golf It

The R&A's purpose is to make golf more accessible, appealing and inclusive and to ensure it is thriving 50 years from now and Golf It plays a huge part of that ambition.

Golf It is The R&A's first golf facility which opened in Glasgow in August 2023 and will create a new "pathway to golf" that is open and accessible focusing on delivering fun and being community and family orientated.

The venue, located in the north east of Glasgow, will attract a new audience to the game, and make people challenge everything they thought they knew about golf, inspiring future generations to say 'I love playing golf'".

Golf It is accessible to people from all walks of life.

It has a 9 Hole Golf Course, a 52 Bay two-tiered Driving Range, 3 Adventure Golf Courses, Park Golf, Simulators and many more activities.

There is a street food outlet, provided by Big Feed Street Food, an onsite Nursery operated by Lullaby Lane and three Padel Tennis Courts operated by Game4Padel.
