  • Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club Launches Footgolf
    HERITAGE GOLF GROUP FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE In the Press FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FOR INFORMATION SEPTEMBER 22, 2014 Brady Boyd (843) 681-1703 PORT ROYAL GOLF & RACQUET CLUB ANNOUNCES THE LAUNCH OF FOOTGOLF HILTON HEAD ISLAND, SC - Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club, a Heritage Golf Group property, announces the launch of FootGolf, a relatively new sport that combines the popular sports of soccer and golf, starting October 2nd, 2014. The rules of FootGolf largely correspond to the rules of golf. FootGolf uses golf’s basic model including tee boxes, greens, bunkers, hazards, and 9-holes or 18-holes of play. The sport is played with a soccer ball on a traditional golf course with 21-inch diameter cups, set to the side of the traditional greens, instead of the traditional 4.25-inch diameter cups. Scorecards display par scores for each hole, just as in regular golf. In support of the launch, Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club will host a complimentary FootGolf Clinic from 2:00pm to 3:00pm on Friday, October 17th, 2014. Those wishing to join the clinic can sign up in the Golf Shop or call (843) 681-1766. Port Royal will offer FootGolf on Thursday-Saturday afternoons. The Port Royal FootGolf course, a 9-hole course on Planter’s Row (Holes 1, 2, 3, 10, and 11), takes approximately one hour or less to play. FootGolfers wanting to play 18-holes will be able to play the course twice. “We are very excited to bring this new sport to our Club. We see FootGolf as a way to reach new people that haven’t been to our club before (or perhaps haven’t been to any golf course before).

  • BC's First Ever Footgolf Tournament!
    The Okanangan Golf Club, Inn from the Cold – Kelowna and the Kelowna Kodiaks Presents: BC’s First Ever Footgolf Tournament! Inn From the Cold - Kelowna’s Kodiaks, a street soccer team comprised of local homeless, underprivileged persons, and volunteers who aim to improve the lives of those in need by providing an athletic outlet to develop skills that can be transferred into everyday life by their own volition, are looking for local soccer players and golfers - or anyone who is generally looking to have some outdoor fun - to attend the Inaugural Kelowna Kodiaks Footgolf Tournament, Saturday, April 12th, at the Okanagan Golf Club (The Bear Course).The Kodiaks are looking to help the Okanagan kick off the Soccer & Golf season in style by combining the two sports into one with the possibility of being crowned the first (un)official Footgolf champion in BC! So what on earth is Footgolf? Golf meets Soccer in this exciting new sport that is fun, easy to play and anyone can enjoy. Footgolf originated in the Netherlands and has spread to over 16 countries throughout the world with the Federation for International Footgolf serving as its governing body. The game is similar to Golf in that rules, etiquette and attire remain the same (indoor soccer or turf shoes replacing golf shoes as the exception), however for game play, the players' intent is to kick a size 5 soccer ball into a 21 inch hole with the least amount of strokes possible. The Okanagan golf club is looking forward to being the first golf course in BC to offer Footgolf.
