BRISTOL AEROSPACE GOLF SOCIETY (BAGS)

The Society dates back to at least 1947 when it was known as the Bristol Aeroplane Golfing Society. With the many changes to the aerospace companies located at Filton the Society is now known as the Bristol Aerospace Golf Society. Despite the current membership having several Rolls Royce personnel the Society often gets incorrectly called the British Aerospace or BAC Golf Society. The Society is one of many recreational societies affiliated to the BAWA Healthcare and Leisure.  The Society has a privileged position of being the one of the very few Societies to be recognised by the Bristol and District League. It is because of this the Society can take part in playing 'Stragglers' matches against many of the local golf clubs. The Society allows members to, meet fellow golfers, experience new golf courses, take part in competitions and above all, encourage the playing of golf.
