Formby Hall Goes Credit Crunch Crazy With £10,000 Giveaway

The open is returning to Sefton on Saturday 28^th March when the great golf giveaway takes place at Formby Hall Golf Resort & Spa (FHGR&S).

The resort's PGA academy is hosting its first open day in a golf bonanza worth more than £10,000.

Its PGA professionals will help golfers lose shots as they provide free tuition at the academy's swing analysis lab, host short and long game clinics to improve technique and give free range balls and access to the driving range.

Visitors can take part in a series of challenges including nearest pin and longest drive. The biggest test will be chipping the ball into a Ferrari 360 Spider as the winner will get to experience driving the supercar for the day. Other prizes include a luxury stay at the resort, private golf tuition by PGA professionals and a four ball on the 18-hole golf course.

Mark Williams, PGA professional at Formby Hall Golf Resort & Spa, said: "As the golf season starts we want to keep building momentum and generate interest in all aspects of golf. There's no Premier League football during the open weekend which gives people the perfect chance to switch their focus to golf and hone their skills."

The PGA academy will be a one stop shop for golfers of all abilities from 10am to 5pm on Saturday 28^th March. The clinics will take place at 12pm and 2pm and tuition at the swing analysis lab will take place from 11am and occur at 15 minute intervals.
