The Sheffield Union of Golf Clubs organises inter-club competition leagues for men.
The main league, playing matchplay off scratch with teams of four players, has been running since 1967 and there are 5 divisions each with up to 7 participating clubs. Home and away matches are played each summer with all other teams in the division. Fixtures are published for the season and most matches are held at 17:00 on Wednesdays. At the end of the season two teams from each division are promoted and two are relegated.
The Sheffield Union also organises a league aimed at men with handicaps of 6 to 18. Teams comprise 8 players, playing foursomes matchplay. There are 4 divisions each with 7 participating clubs. Matches are arranged between the clubs so there is no standard weekly match day across the league.

Each team has 5 players. Each league is divided into two divisions. Each season, the bottom six teams in Division 1 will be relegated to Division 2 and the top six teams from Division 2 will be promoted to Division 1.

In 2024 the team finally finished 6th out of 8 in the division, after a promising start but disappointing end with some heavy away defeats. However, Division 3 status is retained for 2025. Team spirit has been excellent with a strong pool of players so let's hope for a better outcome this year.
