Entering Events via golf genius
We use Golf Genius for tournament management and so you MUST register on Golf Genius – https://cheshiregolf.org.uk/register prior to entering any Cheshire competition.
The registration form will require a Membership Number (CDH) plus an email address and additional information which would be helpful includes Mobile Phone Number, Date of Birth and Affiliation (Home Club). Having an email address and mobile number will allow for communication with the players, and having a Date of Birth will allow for the setup of ‘age’ categories in advance. (Note : The “GGID” that you may see mentioned is a Golf Genius ID code which refers to individual competitions (or to even more specific information within a competition).)
Entries for the 2026 championships will open in early January 2026 – scroll down the list (in date order) to get to your chosen event.
Entry fees will be collected via Stripe, a card payment system integrated within Golf Genius. Occasionally, if payment is not accepted, it is the link to the bank that hasn’t been completed and you should try again. If the problem persists, or you have any other issues with the system, please contact the Tournament Manager whose contact details will be detailed in the individual tournament information.
We look forward to seeing you at the championships over the summer months.

County Leagues & Associations
Manchester and District Golf Association (MGDA)
The Manchester and District Golf Alliance consists of over a 100 golf clubs from the Manchester and Cheshire area.
It was formed in 1924, with two main aims. Firstly, to provide additional income throughout the winter months for Professional golfers, but primarily to forge ‘Friendship Through Golf’. Our motto “Friendship Through Golf” forms the basis of everything that we do.
Whilst providing an income for professional golfers MDGA has expanded over the years to include amateur golfers and inter club knockout competitions.
The Dunham Forest Trophy is our most prestigious event, however the competitions also include The City Glass Men’s Foursomes, The Archie Preston Mixed Knockout, Seniors Team Knockout and The BMW Junior Team Knockout.
The prestigious Bell Cup for Ladies is possibly the largest event of its kind in the country. the Association holds other competitions which are open to all ladies who are members of a club which is affiliated to MDLGA.
The County thank the MDLGA for their support for County Junior Golf
