Sages Senior Golfers, the short form of the name being Sages, is a golfing society for senior golfers. Members of golf clubs who have reached the age of 50 are eligible to join any of the branches spread over Southern Africa.
These branches arrange tournaments at different golf clubs within its area one or more times per month. Sages enjoy the opportunity of fellowship with other senior golfers, and the opportunity to play with Sages at different courses all over the country.
If our branch is too far for you please have a look at our SAGES National Website to find the closest branch to you.
Sages started in 1976 as a result of an increasing demand from senior golfers who felt the need for an organisation that would meet their requirements.
The first branch, Rand Central (now called Jimmy Gowans branch), was formed in 1976 under the chairmanship of founder member Jimmy Gowans. The other branches followed in quick succession, with the first Sages National Champion being crowned in 1978.
At present there are 29 branches with a total of about 2500 members.
Our home club is Randpark Golf Club which has always been a great supporter of our SAGES branch.
2023 is our 47th year and we as always strive to live by our founder's vision:
"The idea of SAGES was to meet old friends make new friends and enjoy one another in camaraderie. Many of you can attest to this. We trust that you will appreciate each other and the camaraderie whilst we are blessed to play our game."
