Coventry Sports Foundation golf day is a hit

Teams soon got into the swing of things at Coventry Sport Foundation’s fifth annual golf day.

A total of 12 teams and almost 50 people from businesses and other organisations took part in this year’s Foundation Open, which was held at Brandon Wood Golf Course and Club.

The tournament was the latest in a series of society days hosted by the course based in Wolston, Warwickshire, on the outskirts of Coventry.

Andy Adkins, commercial manager at Coventry Sports Foundation, said: “We were delighted to welcome so many teams from across the region made up from businesses and sports clubs as well as groups of friends.

“The format of the tournament was designed to create a sociable and sporting atmosphere, as well as providing networking opportunities for businesses.

“Brandon Wood provided the perfect location for this type of event, the course was in perfect condition as always and it was possibly the best-run golf day so far.

“We were delighted to see so many people turn out and participate in what was a thoroughly enjoyable day.”

As a thank you for entering players received breakfast rolls, a pack of three Srixon distance golf balls, a pitch repairer plus a voucher which enables them to return to Brandon Wood and take a friend for free.

The course is scheduled to host further society and charity golf days over the coming months along with a refurbishment of the clubhouse.
