The OE Golf Society
The OE Golfing Society started over 50 years ago and has approximately 160 members of all ages and golfing abilities. Membership is free.
It offers a mix of good social golf and more serious competition in national public school events. Fixtures include an annual match against a mix of boys and staff from KES, three annual matches against other former pupil associations, a spring and autumn meeting, and public school events.
Any OEs who enjoy a game of golf are welcome to join – whatever their ability or handicap. For further information about all the fixtures and events please contact Martin Wilkes via the Development & Alumni Relations Office.
Alumni versus Pupil Matches
The school Sports Department runs alumni versus pupil matches in Cricket and Golf, with help from OEs. Alumni are always welcome to join us for our celebratory matches.
