National Club Golfer is a monthly golfing magazine published by Sports Publications. It is the highest-circulated golf title in the UK.[2]

Overview

National Club Golfer magazine was launched by Sports Publications in April 1994.

The magazine started as a paper but changed to a glossy magazine in 1997. National Club Golfer, or NCG as it is known to regular readers, is the only magazine in the United Kingdom that is distributed to every golf club in England, Wales, and Scotland free of charge. It is also the highest-circulated print golf publication in the country, with a circulation of almost 60,000.

Sports Publications also put together a magazine dedicated to women's golf - Lady Golfer - which is the highest-circulated ladies' title in print and digital formats in the UK, going out to every club in England, Wales, and Scotland.

Based in Leeds, the magazines are aimed squarely at real club golfers who are the heartbeat of the game in Britain. National Club Golfer is renowned for the quality and depth of its golf equipment, news and course coverage.

In May 2005 both magazines launched a dedicated website featuring their content, at www.nationalclubgolfer.com, and free digital magazines at digital.nationalclubgolfer.com and digital.ladygolferonline.co.uk.

Following a big re-design in mid-2010, the magazine is now the most respected and well-read in the UK.
