IUGA 2013 Golf Challenge
Ireland is known for many things –the rich history and culture, Guinness, the “craic”, the landscape, which lends itself to activities such as walking (Lonely Planet claims the best in the world), fishing, horse-riding, and golfing. With over 300 golf courses, is it any wonder that Ireland is green? World renowned courses dot the map but it is also the informal and friendly manner in which the game is played, that makes Irish golf a special experience. On that note, we are delighted to announce the inaugural IUGA Golf Challenge taking place on Monday, May 27, 2013. Tee time will be 10:00am – 11:50am. Format will be a 4-ball, teeing off every 10 minutes. For more information or to sign-up for the golf challenge, click here.
