Member's Say
A great day at Frilford Heath for the BGIA Golf Day. The course was great and the 23 teams were a tribute to our industry in supporting the future of the game. The camaraderie amongst the different companies, customers and organisations was overwhelming and the organisation from both the BGIA and Frilford Heath was, as usual, first class.
Once again, an excellent golf day so well organised and delivered at a superb venue. It is always a motivational experience coming together with colleagues, peers and new connections from within our industry. The level of attendance and the positive energy across the entire day, despite the difficult conditions, are testament to the quality of the event as well as the commitment from members of the BGIA to the collective cause of growing our game. Thanks to everyone involved.
MediaDrive have been BGIA members for over 15 years and it’s been great to see how the organisation and the event have grown over the past five seasons. Frilford Heath never disappoints, even if the weather doesn’t play ball, and it’s always a pleasure to return here and meet so many industry friends and colleagues. The support for growing the game and awareness of Prostate Cancer is the cherry on the cake of a feel-good event that we look forward to returning to each year.
This year’s BGIA Golf Day at Frilford Heath once again reminded us why it has become such an essential date in the industry calendar. It is one of the rare occasions where the golf trade can come together and celebrate the collective progress we are making. The BGIA continues to play a vital role in uniting the many voices within golf - promoting participation, championing sustainability and supporting the long-term growth of the sport. The BGIA’s vision for the future will help to ensure the game remains accessible, inclusive and inspiring. Frilford Heath once again provided a superb setting and the organisation from the BGIA team was exceptional. The day struck the perfect balance between friendly competition and camaraderie. There is something special about stepping onto a beautiful course alongside friends, colleagues and new connections from across the trade. What stood out most this year was the growing momentum behind initiatives driving participation. Each year, more companies join the conversation and ‘beat the drum’ for golf’s many benefits. We would like to thank the BGIA, Frilford Heath and everyone who took part and we look forward to continuing our work together to grow the game.
