Golf Digest has just posted a guide on how to organize and host a golf outing, be it just a fun event or a full-blown charity event. I knew such guides existed but I'd never seen one before, and this one breaks things down into small manageable steps.
For example, you may not realize that most of the money for a charity event comes not from entrance fees but from sponsors. This guide tells you some of the basic ways to attract sponsors and how they create a cash stream for an event.
It gives you some tips on how many people you need to have on your event-running team and what sort of tasks they should do to make sure the event runs smoothly and successfully.
The guide even gives you some direction on how to choose a suitable golf course and a tournament format that will match the skill levels of your intended attendees.
Clearly a single article like this won't tell you everything you need to know in order to run a golf event like an experienced pro. But it will point you in the right direction and give you an overview of what you're getting yourself into. Just having a clear vision of what you'll be facing might make the difference between a successful event and a disaster.
By all means, choose to make your event successful and read this guide!
