Booking and time
How does my monthly time work?
Your membership includes a set number of simulator hours each month depending on your membership type, and you can purchase extra time if you want more.
Can unused time roll over to the next month?
Time does not automatically roll over. Make sure you use your allocated hours each month (you can always top up extra time if you need more).
How much is additional time?
Starter members pay £12 per 30 minutes, Town members £10 and Town-Plus members £8.
When can I book sessions?
Booking is required to secure time at the simulators. You can book up to 7 days in advance.
When is the club open?
Open 7 days a week, 7am to 10pm. Off-peak hours are weekdays 9am–12pm and 2pm–5pm.
At the club
Do I need to bring my own clubs?
Members are welcome to bring their own clubs, as they would to a physical golf course. Complimentary golf clubs are also provided, so you can play without bringing a set.
Can I store my clubs at the club?
Yes. Lockers are available for members to hire to store a golf bag or clubs. They’re limited and allocated first come, first served; email londonfields@simgolfclubs.com to request one.
Can I bring a guest?
Guests are always welcome to join members at no additional cost, up to 2 guests per session. We ask members to be respectful of fellow members and mindful of noise and behaviour.
Is there parking?
There’s no dedicated parking, but on-street parking is available nearby. Many surrounding bays are free after 6:30pm on weekdays and all weekend. Restrictions vary by street, so check the RingGo app or local signs before you travel. The club is also easy to reach by public transport, bike and on foot.
What if I’m left-handed?
The bays are full-sized 4.8-metre bays, so right- and left-handed golfers can both enjoy the Trackman experience.
What courses can I play?
SGC London Fields uses Trackman iO. The package includes 500+ courses, some of them PGA Tour venues, with new courses added monthly.
Which balls do you use?
SGC London Fields is affiliated with Vice Golf, and Vice Pro Plus balls are provided for members’ use.
What if I get a hole in one?
A Trackman hole-in-one is as impressive as one on a physical course. The first member to achieve it receives complimentary session credits and Vice Golf merchandise.
Coaching
Who teaches lessons?
Jake Watson, a PGA professional golf coach with over 12 years of coaching experience, who helps golfers of all levels, from beginners to seasoned players.
Do you offer virtual lessons?
Yes. Virtual sessions include personalised analysis, drills and feedback on your game, at a time that suits you.
Gifting
Can I gift a membership?
Yes. A gifted Starter Membership costs £135 and gives the recipient 2 hours per month for 3 months, plus the ability to purchase additional time.
