The Ultimate Guide to Hosting a Successful Society Golf Day: Whether you’re bonding with clients or competing with your friends, we’ll help you plan an unforgettable day of golf:
- Location, Location, Location. – choose a course that is an accessible distance for your society group with whatever transport they choose to take! 45-60 mins max
- when choosing your venues….remember!! some clubs are part of a larger company that have several sites that they can recommend! reduce your workload and let them sort your days out!
- Allow your group to recommend courses! they may have played courses that you are not aware of! Organise a WhatsApp group to share your course ideas.
- Do you have a budget for each day? Having a clear budget will help narrow your search down to suitable golf courses.
- Start Calling! The more in advance you book, the better! Golf clubs do allow a longer booking window for societies but book In before another group gets there first!
- All courses now require a deposit fee to secure your booking! Cheques are not accepted and most clubs are going cashless. Do this ahead of time to allow enough time to chase the monies owed from your group.
- Know the average size of your group to book the tee times accordingly.
- Does the group need team uniforms? Clubs you are booking with may offer deals on pre-ordering your tops for your day
- Prizes! Don’t forget – the courses you booked with may have packages that you can select from to include prizes for your day! reduce that workload!!
- Your day is fast approaching! Nearly all clubs will now require numbers and remaining balance paid in advance of the day!
- Make the golf competitive – some courses may offer live scoring, longest drive markers, nearest the pins – find out – they can help you!
- Now your days arrived – everything you needed to do is done so enjoy the day!
