Tips on Conducting a More Successful Golf Outing

The following information is a collection of ideas and tips gathered from our own experiences in handling group events. Depending on your tournament goals and the size of your event, you may find that only a portion of these tips will fit your needs. Our purpose in providing you with these helpful guidelines is to aid you in organizing the perfect Golf Outing for your group!

General Guidelines

bulletBegin to plan your outing well in advance. 
Set and follow deadlines...hold periodic meetings with your staff to assure timely completion of specific tasks.
bulletSet the day's atmosphere to be enjoyable and sociable.
Avoid competitiveness in your event unless appropriate. Captain and Crew or Scramble formats are generally more enjoyable than individual stroke play.
bulletGive the participants products with your company name or logo.
A small memento goes a long way towards a client remembering your company or a fund raising participant wanting to be part of your event in future years. It's also not as costly as you might think. Ask the Golf Professional for ideas!
bulletProvide all of the needed information to the Sunset Ridge Staff on time.
Player's names and pairings, food service requirements, and special golf contests should be communicated to our staff well in advance. This will ensure that your event goes off the way you envisioned.
bulletOn the day of the event, RELAX, enjoy, and let us do the rest.
After your representative has handled the registration of golfers, allow our trained and experienced staff to take care of the details. We will treat your guests to an enjoyable and professionally run event.
