Leicester fixture is January.
Many courses won't be worth bothering with, if the weather has been wet, unless they are offering a very cheap guest rate and someone here is willing to sign you in.

County golf courses are "Leicestershire and Rutland" or "L&RGU".
Luffenham Heath is regarded as a fine course, but is much nearer Peterborough than Leicester. A very pleasant place, but not worth the extortionate green fee in my opinion.

Nearer the LCFC fixture, post an enquiry on Midlands Forum Link on Arrange A Game section to see who could host or join you or at least recommend a course that is playable and worth the money at that time of year.

Hope this has helped a bit.

How are your football, golfing trips going? Your team is certainly doing alright.
I've actually only done three :( but I have seen three wins! Sunderland, Sheffield Wednesday and Southampton (all the S's were not deliberate). It's a great way to spend a weekend though. Hillsborough GC was my favourite; I realised how much I enjoyed it the other night, when I couldn't sleep so I lay there in bed and I could visualise every single hole in real detail, in order

I have always thought that this is a perfect way to value a course. Memorable over totally forgettable.

Strange that the two fixtures should be so close together, but makes it interesting all the same.
All the other teams hoping for two nil-nil draws I imagine.

Poo!
West Brom just equalised.
