2010 GOLF TOURNAMENT

We are back!!

Bigger and better than ever before, this year FSHD Global has secured two national championship-status golf courses - NSW Golf Club (14th September) and Terrey Hills Golf and Country Club (30th November) - for our annual Golf Tournament.

Entering a team into the Tournament will enable you to bring four people to two days of golf.  FSHD Global encourages you to bring different clients, colleagues and friends to participate on each day. The games offer fantastic marketing and networking opportunities.

This year we have created a Point System to encourage those non-golfer FSHD supporters to participate and get in on the action.

  • All teams who enter will be rewarded with a certain amount of points.
  • Anyone who recruits a new team to the tournament will be awarded points.
  • Players who participate in games on the green will win points.
  • Players who win games on the green will be awarded with more points.

The pointing structure could be equated to the Frequent Flyer concept. At the end of the Tournament several individuals with the most points will win amazing prizes.

To keep it exciting, FSHD will be sending out Sponsorship Packages for those who are interested in promoting themselves on the days, receiving fantastic exposure and showing public support for this cause.

More details on associated golfing costs will be released soon.

Overview:

  • Two day tournament
    • September 14th at NSW Golf Club
    • November 30th at Terrey Hills Golf & Country Club
  • 18 holes, Ambrose format
  • Games and prizes along the course to make the day exciting for both golfers and non-golfers
  • Team captains encouraged to invite array of clients, staff & friends to participate
  • Excellent networking opportunities
  • Opportunity to promote your company in a corporate environment
  • Thousands of dollars worth of prizes to win
  • Tax deductible
  • Finally all money raised during this tournament is for a good cause!
