Write up – Nordic Golf Tournament 2016
On the 14th of September the annual Nordic Golf Tournament took place at the Laguna National Golf and Country Club.
55 happy people had registered for the golf tournament as well as 7 new golfers joined the golf clinic for training and tips on how get started with golfing.
Lunch at the Nest went well with all attendees happily networking, however short time before the shotgun start at 1:30 PM, the warning sirens sounded and the game was suspended due to lightning on the course. Luckily, we enjoyed great service from the staff at the Nest and lots of cold beer from Carlsberg and nice wines from Donzere Wine so the wait didn’t seem too long
At 2:45pm the rain has almost stopped and we had our group picture taken, while waiting for the marshals to check the course conditions. At 3pm we finally had our shotgun start and with everybody urged to play fast, we actually had a lot of people finishing 18 holes before it started to get dark at 7pm.
A great golfing day on a very good and well-groomed Laguna Masters course ended a scrumptious dinner and eventful prize ceremony. DABS and SBAS would like to extend a special thanks to Laguna National for their professionalism and service with a smile during our event.
We had great support from our event sponsor, Scania as well as our hole sponsors: Nordea, Faststream and Wrist Far East. IME made sure that everyone had new golf balls to play with. Lots of well-played novelty holes featuring 3x closest to pin, longest drive, closest to line and eagle prize on a par 4 with a 1 foot wide hole, resulted in handout of great prizes from SCANIA, Norden, ECCO, Urban Fairways, Access People, Louis Poulsen, SVENNINGSEN Solutions and Dexteritas.
The match form was the usual System 36 and this resulted in a good mix of people winning nice prizes. The winner of the Women’s trophy was Ms. Helle Norup from Denmark. The winner of the Men’s trophy was Mr. Lee Eng Hwa from SCANIA (Sweden) and now both trophies are been displayed at the respective embassies till next year’s tournament.
A very big thank you to all the sponsors, participants and Laguna National for making this tournament possible!
Please tell everybody about this tournament, and how well it went, so we can have more participants and more sponsors next year, and make the event even greater!
Thanks and warm regards,
The Golf Committee.
