Choosing for a new venue for your golf day?

Bletchingley Golf Club
Finding the right venue for your golf day can be a long and detailed process and can make a huge difference to whether your day is a success or failure. Two clubs that have proved to be popular with Golf Day organisers and golf societies and I have had the pleasure of working both Bletchingley Golf Club Surrey and Pedham Place Golf Centre Kent in recent years.

During this period, both these clubs have provided a great venue for corporate and private golf events that include multiple formats including individual competitions, Yellow Ball team games, Nearest Pins, Straightest Drives and six player shoot-outs. Their golf day packages also incorporated post-match meals, raffles and auctions, all good fun. On each occasion, we were provided with excellent food and function rooms to hold our events.

Having first worked with Bletchingley Golf Club in 2012 when they hosted only the 2nd TSG OPEN Championship, I have since used their golf club for numerous events. We were very well looked after by General Manager and PGA Golf Pro Steve Cookson and his staff. Following the success of this golf day, Bletchingley went on to host the event for the next three years. Winners at this venue included TSG members Paul Smith, Brigitte Lockwood, Judy Lilley, David Holmes. Arguably one of the best draining course in the south of England, this course is a great choice for golf day organisers and the like, due to its playability in all weathers.

Meanwhile, Pedham Place Golf Centre was the chosen venue for the first TSG Par 3 Championships in 2016. The superb Academy Course has gone on to host the event every year since. The Club has always been good supporters of my events and the course is always in great condition. Winners at this venue included TSG members Brian Scott, Noel Loughrey and Pete Mayo. Located just a few minutes’ drive from Junction 30 on the M25, this pretty and well maintained short-ish Par 3 course is great fun to play and a test for golfers of all levels.
