The 600 Club – Saints Golf Donor Fund

Join our community of supporters from around the globe to help us develop a world-renowned golf programme at Scotland’s first university.

Our vision

With access to world-leading teaching and a comprehensive professionally run high performance golf programme, there is nowhere more special than St Andrews – the Home of Golf – at which to be a student golfer.

Our aim is to attract the brightest and best students to St Andrews, where they can pursue their golfing ambitions to the highest level whilst studying for a degree at one of the finest academic institutions in the world.

The 600 Club

The 600 Club was formed in 2013 during the University’s 600-year anniversary celebrations to support the growth and development of the Saints Golf Programme.

Our supporters club offers a way for former players, friends, and family to stay connected and help sustain the long and distinguished history of golf at the University.

To achieve our goals, we are helped enormously by the donations and external support from our 600 Club members. Any financial support is channelled straight back into helping the players via scholarships, coaching, tournament assistance, travel or bespoke support.
