A charity golf day can be the perfect setting

for entertaining clients at the same time as

putting your company’s chosen charity in the

spotlight. Mixing a meeting and teeing off

with an in-house competition over nine or 18

holes is another option.

It’s not all about the rough, the fairway and

the greens though! The following courses

offer superb corporate facilities, excellent

levels of service and delegate rates that make

choosing a golf course for a standalone

meeting a good value option too. And if you

do want to incorporate a round of golf into

your day, then the time is par-fect!

impressed at Sandford

Springs Golf Club in

Hampshire. Set in the rolling

hills of Watership Down

territory, this golf venue has

a unique 27-hole layout, with

three 9-hole looped circuits;

The Park, The Woods and

The Lakes.

The first nine are played on

The Park Course. This par

34 round will challenge with

strong winds that are more

common on a links course.

The signature ninth hole

is protected by lakes and

bunkers, so accuracy will

reward golfers here!

The middle nine of The Woods

will impress with its tree-lined

fairways and tricky greens.

At par 36, this circuit is the

hardest of the three and with

a particularly challenging 13th

over water and a deep bunker,

its time to get combative on

this course!

In a Spin Over

England’s

All-Rounders!

From the stumps of the village green on

a sunny Sunday afternoon to the cries of

‘how’s that’ from test matches that are

televised to millions across the world, cricket

continues to grow in popularity with the

2019 World Cup having played a big role in

the rise.

Hosted in England and Wales, it was an

exciting final between England and New

Zealand that was decided by a super over,

before England were crowned eventual

winners. Viewed by a record-breaking 2.6

billion fans, it’s the most watched cricket

championship ever.

With a summer of county cricket ahead, a

business meeting in the morning followed

by an afternoon of cricket whites, centuries

and catches sounds very appealing.
