  • 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).
