Golf school 2012

Posted by drew on Mar 11

This years golf school in the Algarve was terrific fun, we were again blessed with fabulous weather, and 20 guys seemed to have a great time. Some new faces this year and some familiar ones too, a good mix of gender and ability also. This year we based ourselves at the Tivoli Hotel in Lagos, and played the Boavista resort and the newly revamped Palmares course. Boa I have played many times, its a really good test and has the best short game practice area in the Algarve. Palmares is all new to me since the re build. The most fantastic views from the balcony across the bay, a panorama that is unrivalled from any other clubhouse in the region. And the course was just as good, the practice ground just about as good as it gets, the putting green too! A magical place indeed. Gary Norcott is the head pro at Stockport GC, and was once again my partner in this golf school, a great pro and excellent company to boot!
Lots of guys made this a great trip, not just our supporters, clients , but also the clubs themselves and especially Rodrigo at BV, Nuno at Palmares and Ana at the hotel, a top team- thank you all!
Until next year…’cos we will be back!
This week I have the Sunningdale foursomes playing with my son Tom, a truly super event and one I really do think we can win , so watch this space!

cheers Andrew
