Through experience GreenScape has identified the keys to hosting a
successful golf event and provides advice and recommendations on:
Event Format
- Amateur Competition - numerous formats or competition play -
individually or in teams
- Pro-Am - a team event with professional golfers
- Golf Tuition/Golf Clinic - Employ the services of a professional
golfer and the facilities of a golf driving range or golf academy. This formay
could also be used together with a competition or for an introduction to golf
for non-golfer clients
- Golf Event Hospitality - most major golf tournaments have a range
of corporate options available. Watch the golf and dine in style in hospitality
pavilions
- Golf Tours - If your requirement is to entertain a small group of
special clients or colleagues and friends why not consider a visit to some of
the wonderful golf courses and resorts around the world.
Venue
- Venue near to company offices
- Venue central to invited guests
- A 'prestige' venue
Time of Year
- Avoid major dates within your industry
- Avoid main holiday times
Guest Numbers
The number of invited guests should be such that it is manageable within the
time allowed and within the capabilities of the host venue.
Itinerary
The itinerary should be formulated to create a balance between the golf
activities and the time required to meet and talk with client guests.
Promotional Goods
There is a wide range of golf related products on the market, many of which can
be personalised with corporate logos and given as gifts to client guests.
Advertising
The placement of suitable advertising signs and banners at the host venue
Prizes
A wide range of possibilities is available, from long-term mementos to more
disposable items.
Catering
Account should be taken of player numbers, the timing of the day, menu
selection and also the capabilities of the host venue.
Video Filming
A video film can provide additional interest when replayed in the clubhouse the
same day and provide a longer-term archive.
Photography
Still photography can be an addition or alternative to the video. Same day
processing allows each client guest to take a photo away at the end of the
day. |
