Golf, competition and good company.
An international golf society playing a changing selection of courses around Hamburg, with regular outings, an annual championship and a charity tradition stretching back more than two decades.
Different courses. Different nationalities.
One society.
Founded in Hamburg in 1996 by a group of golf enthusiasts around Finnegan's Wake, FGSH has grown into an international society built around friendly competition and a shared love of golf.
We play changing courses around Hamburg, with regular events throughout the season and an overseas outing each year.
A Hamburg golf society with international roots.
In 1996, a group of like-minded golf enthusiasts founded the Finnegan's Wake Golf Society in Hamburg. The name came from the Irish pub they frequented and since then has grown substantially. After the closing of the pub, the name was changed to Finnegan's Golf Society Hamburg.
We play in different golf courses around the Hamburg area in order to enjoy the challenges that arise from changing locations. From April to September we on average have two major tournaments per month, with the final occurring in September. Trophies and prizes are awarded at each outing, adding a little friendly competition to every round. The season finale is always a great day out for all.
The fantastic mix of nationalities and handicaps really creates a special feeling of a group dynamic sharing their love of golf.
We also have overseas tournaments once a year as well as match play events throughout the season.
New members are more than welcome to join the society if you, like us, want to play in a friendly and relaxed environment. Please use the link in the Contact section for more information.
