BMW International Golf Challenge - June 9th

BMW International Golf Challenge 2017, Tokyo Japan
9th June (Fri)
08:45 ~ 16:30

Nope, it's not football but our sponsor Rain Interactive who support this very website's existence are organising a Golf event with BMW Japan. Considering some of our members past and present are keen golfers and others inclined to FootGolf we're posting it out to those who might be interested -- especially as the prize for a Hole in One is a brand new BMW!!!

The BMW International Golf Challenge is a 2 person per team best-ball scramble event being held near Toyko in Ibaraki Prefecture Japan.
While it is a team event you don't need to enter as a team either because single participants can be paired up to make teams on the day.
