Regional Golf Days
Now in its fifth year, Charity Challenge is proud to announce that our National Golf Final will now be held at a new venue St. Andrews, Scotland on Saturday 18th October. This is the first time we have decided to play the final somewhere other than Gleneagles but we hope you will agree that it's just as prestigious.
We will be playing on the amazing Dukes Course, which has just had a £5 million facelift. It really is fantastic. For those who might have played on the course it has now had all bunkers have been rebuilt and had the last four holes have been fully rebuilt among many other improvements all resulting in a tremendous course. The presentation dinner will be fittingly held in The Hall of Champions in the world famous Old Course Hotel. We're sure that this years competition is destined to be the best ever. To view the course please click here.
To qualify to play in the national final you will need to finish as one of the top two BAE Systems' employees in one of the many regional competitions taking place across the UK. You will then be automatically offered a place in the final. Although that's not the only way to guarantee your place at St. Andrews in October as all organisers of the regional golf competitions are also invited to come along to play. Players that reach the final by coming in the top two will need to have a registered handicap to play but the organisers don't.
Below is a list of regional events that you may want to join to try and secure your place in the National Final. Just drop the contact a line and they’ll get back to you with such information as price and course details.
