Royal Deeside Golf Week takes place each July across four courses in the upper valley. Participants play one round per day, rotating through a different course with a rest day mid-week. Players are grouped by handicap, with separate divisions for men and women. Prizes are awarded after each round. Tee times are scheduled throughout the day. Local club members assist with organisation and scoring. Most entrants have played in the event before, and some return annually. Evenings are informal, with clubhouses remaining open for social gatherings.
