In order to monitor the success, progress and development of golfers in the Leicestershire & Rutland Golf Union it was decided to introduce an Order of Merit in 2009
The original Order of Merit focused on performances in the county major tournaments and the inaugural winner was Jason Palmer from Kirby Muxloe Golf Club. In 2010, the Order of Merit was expanded to take into account performances in County matches (Pre-Season, Anglian League and Eastern Counties Foursomes). The winner of the Order or Merit is presented with a silver salver, donated by Stuart Marriott (Birstall Golf Club, L&RGU County Captain 2011, 2012 & 2013 L&RGU Vice President).
Scott Wormleighton (Rothley Park ) has won the 2024 L&RGU Order of Merit for the first time. Scott scored 676.75 points with the highlight being winning the County Amature Championship. The 2023 Runner up was Richard Wale (Kibworth) on 619.33 points with third place going to Kibworth's James Billingham on 523.75 points.
