BGC – BIGGA Rebuilding Bearsden

Bearsden Golf Club’s ambitious course redevelopment has been featured by the British and International Golf Greenkeepers Association.

The article tells the story of David McBride’s remarkable career in greenkeeping and his central role in transforming our historic course into a modern, sustainable nine-hole layout. It explores the challenges faced throughout the project, from protecting the Antonine Wall and managing flood risks to keeping nine holes open during construction and overcoming extreme weather conditions.

The redevelopment has since earned Bearsden Golf Club recognition as a finalist for the BIGGA Greenkeeping Project of the Year Award, reflecting the commitment, expertise and hard work of David, John Brown and everyone involved in delivering the new course.
