Golf tournaments can get seriously competitive, and golf team names can be funny, clever, or sometimes even dirty.
Golf is known as a relatively tame sport, but it also has a bit of a rebellious spirit. In Scotland, where golf was invented, the sport was actually banned three times![1]
Fear not, however — the most recent ban was in the 1400s, so you don’t have to worry about the course shutting down mid-game any time soon.
Golf not only bounced back in popularity after the ban but went on to become one of only two sports played on the moon![1]
Below, you’ll find our list of golf team names of all kinds, but if you’d rather create your own name, we also share some brainstorming tips below the list.

How to Create a Great Golf Team Name
When creating a golf team name, you’ll want to consider teammates’ preferences and choose something that perfectly reflects all of your personalities and playing styles.
If none of the options on our list above is the right fit, create a great golf team name using the following tips:
- Keep your team in mind. There is a wide range of team names to choose from for your golfing group. Keep your team’s purpose and opinions in mind. Is the team you’re naming purely for recreation or is it competitive? What sense of humor do your teammates have? What are their strengths? If you’re golfing with friends, you can probably choose a much more casual name than if you’re golfing with work colleagues or competing in a high-class tournament.
- Use professional golfers’ names as inspiration. If your teammates have a favorite professional golfer that they all admire, why not incorporate that person’s name or a fact about them into your team name? You can create a golf team name with just a single word or a short phrase.
- Think about your history with your team and choose a name that reminds you of it. Maybe there are specific landmarks or parts of the course you love, or a particular course that your team prefers and has a nickname for. Maybe there’s a tee time that you always schedule or a place you and your team always meet. Use small, personal details like that as inspirations for your team name. Take input from your teammates to find the best ideas.
