Welcome to the Pattaya Golf Society

 

The PGS "clubhouse" is Rabbi's Elephant Bar (REB), situated in Soi Buakhao, just next to the junction with Soi 21. It is the home of the IPGC Pattaya Golf Society - originally known as the "Bunker Boys". The Pattaya Golf Society is Pattaya's oldest golf society and ranks as one of the most popular golf groups in Pattaya with competitions arranged three times each week. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays we play competitions which are either stableford or medal based, in two flights, according to the handicaps of those involved. In addition we hold two Order of Merit events each month and the Society's annual Player of the Year is thus chosen. The Pattaya Golf Society is affiliated to the International Pattaya Golf Club (IPGC) which holds its Monthly Medal during the first week of every month. Members comprise of long term residents and holidaymakers alike, and all are welcome, regardless of gender, age or handicap. Every month we play a selection of the twenty-plus unique courses available in the area. For serious golfers REB is the ideal base and excellent accomodation is available at a very reasonable price.
