“Both Laguna Golf Phuket and BISP are committed to growing the game of golf in Phuket. The benefits of golf for young people goes far beyond just the physical aspects of the game. Golf also teaches etiquette, manners, respect, responsibility and even mathematics when scoring!” said Paul Wilson, Director of Golf.
The exciting event will include an exciting 18 holes golf competition around the thoroughly upgraded golf course, plus goodie bags, on-course refreshments and prize giving presentation following play.
“Our idea with this event was to create a fun environment for junior golfers to participate, we wanted to make it more than just a golf competition. The ambition is to grow the event year on year, working together with BISP”.
The BISP Golf Academy, which has just opened its own on-site short game centre by six-time major winner and Laguna Golf ambassador Sir Nick Faldo, is headed by former professional player Oliver Bates from the UK.
"The fantastic events like the annual Laguna Phuket Junior Golf Tournament, helps us give talented kids the opportunity to get to those higher levels of the sport,” said Coach Bates.
