Would you like to discover golf, or if you are already member in one of the Clubs of the “Grande Region”, would you like to discover other courses and meet other players?
Then maybe the Golf Club of the European Communities (GCEC) can fulfill your expectations!
If you want to play golf and you work (or has worked) as an Official for one of the Institutions located in Luxemburg, then, you (and your family),without the obligation of being member of any public or private club, can join the GCEC and participate in the events we will organize.
However, it is a condition you have a valid membership card issued by a National Golf Federation (DGV, FGBR, FFG, FLG, etc.), and you have obtained a green card.
Our Program offers around 25 events per season in - or close to - Luxemburg (Germany, Belgium, France). Further, 2 or 3 times per season we organize golf-weekends +/- 250 km. from Luxembourg.
In 2019 we start the golf season in March/April in Kikuoka, and the closing tournament is foreseen in October in Belenhaff.
Between those two dates, please, have a look on our program below, which shows tournaments on a lot of nice courses, which probably give you many nice strokes and good scores - but for sure, as much fun as possible, because :
WE ALWAYS PLAY FAIR AND FOR FUN !
By the way, there is no age limit to join our club.
<===> IMPORTANT: upper right corner table ==> membership fees are stated in €, so read "€" instead of "£" <===>
For more information please contact us by phone or mail. We will be happy to answer any question that you may have.

The GCCE challenge running over the all year :
Where others are having "The Race to Dubaï" or "The Road to Oman", we have "The Path to Belenhaff" !
►The PATH 2019: rules : In order to be able to designate the two winners (Ladies & Men) of the Path to Belenhaff for the year, every participant at each of our competition will be rewarded with three types of points:
• so called "participation" points : 2 points each time you're at the start and finish one round
• so called "performance" points : (10, 8, 6, 5,4,3,2,1) depending on your ranking position from the 1st to the 10th position,
• so called "contest" points : 3 points each time you win a special contest (near the pin, leary, longuest, ....).
All the data are collected, computed in a way that the total number of points collected by each participant will be divided by a factor 10 , as long as the number of participations are < or = 10, and by the number of participations afterwards.
The two "Winners of the Path to Belenhaff" : the lady and the man who has the highest ratio in their category after the last competition.
Our General Meeting for the season 2018 was held in Room Schuman at "Le Foyer Européen", 10, rue Heinrich Heine in Luxemburg from 18:30 Wednesday 23 January 2019.

Pictures and Comments : We went back to Spa for this year and had to "suffer" a poor course quality with carotted greens but only few drops of rain, but all this affected as well Luxemburg and Brussel's players, so no excuse for a new victory of our colleagues from Brussels (the score 305 to 290), and in the middle of all these negatives issues, the performance of Ulrike (38 points) has to be notice !!!!!!

Pictures and Comments :
Thank you all for participating in our Easter Bunny tournament yesterday.... and thank you for keeping the good spirit despite the rain at the last few holes!! I do think that the condition of the greens effected our score. On the other hand one golfer was able so prove his skills (skills which of course were already know ....) and made a good score of 37 stblf. points.For the rest of us ... the excuse for the "not very good stableford result" will certainly be blamed to the greens!! However; looking at the scorecards - handed over to the committee - give rise to some remarks:
1. Few Golfers (three to four) apparently do not know how to calculate stableford points!
2. Few Golfers do not add the points together after the round.
It does actually means that other people -ex. the organiser(s) !!- need to do ALL (!!!) that work. To make life easier for the organisers in the future I will kindly encourage participants in our tournaments to understand the formule we are playing (ex. calculate stableford points) and hand over correct filled scorecards.
Our General Meeting for the season 2016 was held in Room Adenauer at "Le Foyer Européen", 10, rue Heinrich Heine in Luxemburg from 18:30 Thursday 26 January 2017.

Results : 2017 Résultats Amnéville.pdf
Pictures and Comments : What a lucky bunch of players ...despite the very bad weather forecast, except the last flight who arrived at hole 17 with few drops, for the rest of the field, we had a sunny a very nice day. Lesley won the ladies competition while Stig was leading the field for the men. Unfortunately, we were only able to reward Angela Flood for her longest drive, none of the men succeded to be on the fairway from the back-tee position, and again, a player put his name on the nearest board and then crossed it with a thin line probably when he realized he couldn't join the reward ceremony, but the line was too thin to let the other players kwown that the contest was still open for competition.
So, more happy people after the "Tirage au sort" . Thanks to the Club for the green-fees offered and for the quality of the welcome.
Our Second trip this year, will be in Germany (Stromberg) - Friday 23 & Saturday 24 June 2017

Secondly …. After +10-15 years (???) as a captain for the ECGC I can proudly announce that ……; For the first time EVER - and I mean EVER- all the scorecards were neatly made and it was easy to read the relevant scores/points.
That is a great achievement, it will be the new standard which we ALL need to follow-up upon and comply with……. to make life easier for the organisers….. and by all means, it should be more fun to play a round of golf, when the rules are known and the formula which are played are understood! :-)))

Comments : A super nice WE in Alsace with the sun all along the two days. Two big winners : Katharina (who trusted more or less everything the first day) and Philippe, leader on the two courses. Also at the top, Christianne, Guy, Lesley and Ed ! Well done.
More or less everyone has now to fill up again his/her stock of balls in the perspective of the next coming event ... and this due to the many water hazards we had to deal with during those two days.

"Opening in Kikuoka March 20" :
Results : results KIKUOKA Sunday 30 04 2016.pdf
Pictures and Comments : Winter isn't probably entirely over, but spring is showing some signs ...golfers are back on the course, and on sunday 20 of March, we were 26 participants out in Kikuoka. The Course was in good condition, and this year, everyone finished, totally dry, but of course, a bit cold ..... we had only 6 to 8 degrees when we started at 10:30, but everything went well and the complete field was waiting into that nice Clubhouse for the prize giving, arround 5 pm. We had a nice time on that difficult golf course, and some people registered very good results, and that's for a first competition, early in the season. Hopefully a good start into our very rich program for 2016 !
Very good organization ...thanks to Roland !
"Easter Bunny-Belenhaff 25th of March" -
Results : Easter Bunny results.pdf
Pictures and Comments : First team competition of the year 2016, Belenhaff hosted 19 competitors divided into teams of three or two players. The creative brain of our captain had invented a formula where we had to add per hole, the best two stableford scores.
The welcome with chocolates was appreciated, probably much more than the few showers that have scattered the day.
Two individual scores to notice: Raymond with 40 points and Gert with 38 .... doesn't this smells like an handicap revision for the next competitions ?
Prize giving under sunny skies to end this nice day ! Thanks Captain for the organization and ....the chocolates !
Stableford Competition in Preisch - The organizer is David
http://www.golf-de-preisch.com/
Results : Results Preisch.pdf
Pictures and Comments : Thanks to Florence and all the staff in Preisch, 34 participants felt really welcome and spent a very nice golfing day, perfectly organized by David. We had the pleasure to introduce 1 newcomer and 4 comeback after some years of absence. For the Prize giving, only one serie in "brut" and ....as usual...., it gave us the oportunity to celebrate our german friend Walter (4.9) who scores an extremely good 30 pts, and that has to be appreciated in the perspective of the relatively bad conditions for some of the greens. Concerning the "net" results, we had two categories where, as well for the ladies than for the men, the first position were trusted by "newcomers" (seems to turn into an habit !), namely Giota Zily for the ladies, and Michael Lee for the men (with an impressive score of 39 pts stableford).
David took the oportunity to insist on the importance to read in detail the invitation and all the information in it. On time registration would be more than expected in order to facilitate the job for the organizer.
A special thanks from David to Gert for the nice and highly apreciated Bofferding !
And a very special thanks from all the field of participants adressed to David for the perfect organisation !

Following Competition : Saturday 16th of April in Christnach - "Mystery Partner"- Alice & Marie
http://www.golfclubchristnach.lu/162.0.html?&L=2
Results : résults Christnach.pdf
Pictures and Comments : Il faut admettre que nos deux charmantes organisatrices, Alice et Marie, savent à merveille comment accueillir dans les meilleures conditions leurs invités, démonstration en fût faite encore samedi.
D'abord, le petit sourire et le mot gentil qui l'accompagne, et, comme si cela ne suffisait pas, le petit sachet individuel contenant balle, tees, petites douceurs et ne l'oublions pas, le petit mot d'encouragement ....nous participons tout de même à une compétition ...il ne faudrait tout de même pas l'oublier.
Et quel pouvoir de persuasion, puisqu'elles sont parvenues à convaincre les éléments de ne se déchaîner sur Christnach qu'une fois le dernier compétiteur rentré au Club-house ... c'est à travers les baies vitrées, après la remise des prix qu'elles ont par ailleurs superbement orchestrée, qu'en toute sérénité, nous avons pu observer les violentes averses qui s'abattaient sur le golf.
L'effet du Mystery Partner à joué, jusqu'au bout, mais que faire contre dame chance, qui réunit en équipe gagnante deux des meilleurs scores stableford en simple....victoire en équipe de la "Mystery" paire danoise composée de Lene et Flemming, les gagnants en simple étaient Sue chez les dames, et Flemming chez les hommes ....tiens tiens !!! deux membres de Christnach !!!...comme quoi ce parcours requiert expérience et pratique assidue, la balle la plus proche du trou sur ce green du 18 fut celle de David, ce fut d'ailleurs la seule que le fort vent de face avait daigné laisser attérir sur le green. Christnach avait encore une fois vaincu la meute, mais ce n'est que partie remise ...nous reviendrons.
Merci à Alice et Marie pour cette journée.

Saturday 23rd of April,Technopole in Metz - GCCE Invite Technopole.docx- Roland & Bjargey our organizers
http://www.ngf-golf.com/gardengolf-metz/le-golf/presentation/
Results : résults Technopole.pdf
Pictures and Comments : 25° on Thursday and only 6° on Saturday ...., a little rain on the top of that, just in order to finish waking up earlier tee times, and a course full of surprises .... sometimes good (two participants completed the course with the same ball they played on tee 1) .... as sometimes worse ....ie the fairway of hole 14, very long par 5, which obviously looked more like a field with that very high grass, someone had just cuted shortly before... not easy to find back the perfectly played ball in it .... but, at the end, the victory goes with 30 points to François Vernadat among the men, and with 24 points, to Jeanny Baars among our courageous ladies ... and would you believe me when I'm telling you that those two players are those having played all the strokes on the same ball ? ... The Garden Golf Metz Technopole is a course with some pitfalls, very nice and easy to walk, as long as you stay at distance from the motorway, but it deserves surely beeing challenged again a little later in the season in the future. Many thanks for the organization to Bjargey, and her "assistant" Roland, well done !

Pictures and Comments : Cela faisait bien longtemps que notre traditionnelle rencontre avec nos collègues de Bruxelles ne s'était plus déroulée sous un soleil aussi radieux que celui qui brillait à Spa en ce jour où nous célébrions Robert Schuman. Cela faisait sans doute encore plus longtemps que les participants de Luxembourg ne s'étaient plus déplacés aussi nombreux (24). Cette journée fut une belle réussite, merci à Chantal et à toute l'équipe d'organisation. Le changement de gérance du restaurant et les difficultés de communication avec ceux-ci seront le léger bémol de cette très belle journée qui aura vu la victoire de Luxembourg de trois petits points. Un grand merci également au traditionnel sponsor du GCCE Bruxelles qui assure la dotation de la remise des prix, le rendez-vous est pris pour l'édition 2017, vraisemblablement au Royal Golf Club du Château Royal d'Ardenne, encore plus nombreux, pour que la fête soit encore plus belle !

Pictures and Comments : Super nice weather on that Saturday, and 28 participants at the start on a very well prepared course in a good condition. Rui as usual appears to be the nearest to the pin with 1.92m, and Lesley and Roger got the longest ....apparently, a lot of participants were expecting a special prize for the deapest into the forest ! Rui wins the global Brut and Lene and Pierrot the Net. Three new members took part for the first time to one of our competitions (and our President totally omitted to mention that point and fergot to introduce those newcomers to the all field .....shame on him ! ) - Irina, her husband Jouko and Christophe have discovered our group and could breathe the funny atmosphere of that moto P3F ....."Play Fair and For Fun" !

Results : Résultats durbuy.pdf
Pictures and Comments : Durbuy was a new destination in our Program for this year, and obviously, it has been very much appreciated by the various participants that came in numbers to discover these two courses (Five Nations and Durbuy) and the "Azur en Ardenne" hotel.Both courses were at the image of this very nice region: hilly and very demanding for those who have walked the all way. Unfortunately, due to thunderstorms, we were obliged to stop the second round in Durbuy after 9 holes. This did not prevent us to reward the solid play og Guy and Ann during the prize giving ceremony, both of them won the global competition over the two days. To be notice also, the very nice performances of Ann, Guy and Jean-Pascal, all three with 37 points on Saturday, that will melt their hdcp !
on Monday 13th of June starting at 16:30, GCCE will be back to the hearth of Luxemburg organized by Ed & Lesley-

Results : Résultats Longwy.pdf
Pictures and Comments : Low participation in this event, maybe caused by the bad weather conditions, or/and the reputation of this hilly course, with some quite long jonctions.Some wet and soggy places, but in any case the most beautiful green that we have played since the beginning of the year. Participants will have enjoyed the walk and the layout of those 18 holes. Natassa for its first competition, came and wan with a score of 37pts, among gentlemen, this is Ed who leads the dance. The signature hole course what the 9 did not determine the winner of the "Near the Pin" contest, since no ball landed on the green.

Pictures and Comments : 18 participants, qui ont pour certains, redécouverts, pour d'autres découverts ce très joli parcours vallonné et manucuré avec soin, situé à environ 1 heure de Luxembourg, auront pu apprécier la qualité de l'accueil, la convivialité du club house ainsi que le service irréprochable qui nous auront permis de passer un très très agréable moment dans cet écrin de verdure. Cet environnement favorable a donné des ailes à Gert qui a survolé la compétition chez les messieurs avec ses 40 pts stableford et à Lesley qui remporte la compétition chez les dames. Une très belle adresse golfique à retenir pour le futur.

Results : Results Preisch 27 trous.pdf
Pictures and Comments : A very nice day of golf ! Perfect weather for playing, not too hot, neither too cold, a little wind but not too much and a very nice combination of games, refreshing and creativ ! The big individual winner is Jean-Pascal, the overall best Flight was composed with Fleming, Ann, Evelyne and Jean-Pascal, the best Pair in 4BBB was Ed associated with Graham, the Irish Greensome went to Geneviève and Jean-Louis, two new members, and not a surprise, the Texas Scramble rewarder Evelyne et Jean-Pascal. The three lowest handicap had in fact to play 36 holes, because they had to build a tem with themselves and had to play two balls, and depending on the formula used, personality disorders (duplication, exacerbated egocentrism, etc ....) can occur and last for few days.... we want to prevent relatives and warn that if these symptoms persisted, it may be necessary to consult.

Pictures and Comments : This event, started in Bitche and ended up in Faulquemont, will undoubtedly be one of the highlights of the 2016 season. We played L'Albatros (A+B) on Saturday under scorching temperatures, we had there a nice "team" competition and our 9 team occupied 5 of the 27 flights that went at 12:00 on the course in shotgun.The golf part of the Weekend continues then on Sunday in Faulquemont where we could register particularly high scores with no less than 6 handicaps that should be scaled down. Appart from the two nice courses visited, and the very friendly and cosy ambiance at the Hotel "Chambellan", THE BIG POSITIVE SURPRISE of the weekend was the creativity and the quality of the menu proposed by the team of the Restaurant "La Toya" in Faulquemont. Well done Ladies and Gentelmen you managed to satisfy us far beyond our exceptations !
