5 Tips for Organizing a Charity Golf Day

Charity golf days are a brilliant way to raise funds for a good cause whilst also having a lot of fun.
'Golf is the best way to ruin a good walk' and I kinda agree with that ideology seeing as I take one good shot in ten. But for many enthusiasts out there, what could be a better way to help a charity than to do it be playing a game you love. Perfect!Here's a few tips on how to organise a successful charity golf day -

1. Secure a Golf Cub
Make sure you get your regular golf cub involved to ensure you have a good venue to play the tournament, and of course, advertise it. Being linked in with a good course is a great way to drum up interest from the local players and the community in general.

2. Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail
Get your advertising up an d running at least 2 months in advance so that everyone has a chance to get the date in their diaries. Inform the local press and radio stations, and of course the charity themselves. They usually have a far reaching network of people to advertise such events to, the more the merrier we say.

3. Entertainment
It's a fun day out, so why not add a few special touches so that it really is a memorable day for all those taking part. You could organise a band to play after everyone has finished, or may a quick cocktail on the 9th hole to refresh the parts other drinks can't quite hit!

4. Sponsorship
Speak to local businesses and see if they would like to get involved in helping to pay some of the outgoings of the event. You'd be surprised how many people get involved in such charitable sporting events, plus it's tax deductible, so no major financial issue for those businesses that join the team.

5. Trophies
Always looks good in the paper when you see someone's broad smile after picking up a trophy, so make sure you get a few in, including a few fun ones like 'most putts' and 'king of the water' for those that people who may not win the first prize, but get a chance for a bit of memorabilia from a fantastic day.
Here's hoping that if you do plan a charity golf day that it runs smoothly and you have every success in your endeavour. What a fantastic way to help raise money for a charity by letting people take part in a sport they love, oh the hardship!!
