Changing the Future of Golf. For Good.
It’s Official: Welcome to Loyaltee Golf®!
We have exciting news: Glendale Golf is now officially Loyaltee Golf®! This change marks the final step in our integration with our parent company, Parkwood Leisure, and a new era for our eight golf locations. The change representing much more than a new name – it’s a renewed commitment to our mission to be “Changing the future of golf. For good.”
As Loyaltee Golf®, we are leveraging new resources to enhance your experience by making the sport more accessible and welcoming to all, investing in sustainability to protect our beautiful courses, and continuing to innovate our industry-leading Loyaltee® plans to provide the flexibility and value the modern golfer needs.
While our name is changing, we reassure you that our friendly team and dedication to providing the same fantastic golf experiences remain our top priority, and we can’t wait to welcome you to this next chapter.
Golf Course Update
The good news is the course is still fully open! We’re fortunate to have had great weather, allowing for excellent playing conditions.
As autumn progresses, you’ll naturally see a leaves fall from our large tree stock, but our hard-working greenkeeping team is on the job, clearing them up meticulously every day. In addition, the greens have recently been treated with a liquid feed to boost their health and performance as we head deeper into the season.
Windmill Hill's 18-hole course is in remarkable condition for the time of year!
Upcoming Events
Season Wrap-Up & What’s Next on the Course!
The main golf season might be winding down, but there’s still plenty of exciting action left on the calendar!
We still have several big competitions to finish up before we truly say goodbye to the season. Keep an eye out for the thrilling conclusion of the Men’s Singles and Doubles finals, where champions will be crowned. The suspense continues with the Men’s Order of Merit semi-finals and final still to be played.
Spooktacular Golf Awaits!
Mark your calendars for our fun, non-qualifying Halloween Pairs Competition on Saturday, October 25th, 2025. Get your costumes (and your putters) ready for a lighthearted and festive day on the links!
We look forward to seeing you on the course for these final events!
