OR Golf Society
We now have a thriving OR Golf Society which welcomes golfers at all levels and of all ages. Each year, we organise two or three golf days, usually at clubs where ORs are members, making for a more personal event. Past courses played include: Hartley Wintney, Farnham, Tyrrells Wood and Sunningdale.

Public Schools Old Boys' Golf Association (PSOBGA)
For the more serious OR golfing enthusiast, the Grafton Morrish tournament is the one to aim for: it's the major trophy of the Public Schools Old Boys' Golf Association (PSOBGA). Captained by ORs James Davey (Bristowe 1996) and
Stuart Robinson (Capel 2002), all team members have had a handicap of sub 8!

ORs vs the School 1st XI
Taking place on the last Thursday evening before the end of the Spring term, this ever-popular match is for former 1st team players who are up to taking on the energetic School XI. We usually have enough OR players to have a roll on, roll off system so no-one gets too exhausted.

Recent Leavers v OR Invitational
On the second Saturday of September, we hold this annual match where the last year’s Captain of Rugby puts together his team from recent leavers and a former Reed's Captain (as nominated by our School Head of Rugby) gathers players from across the years. Held at Reeds Weybridge RFC, with friends and family welcomed to come and watch, this is a really enjoyable event played for the prestigious Captain’s Trophy!
