Who says deals are not done on the golf course anymore? We were invited along to showcase our portable mini golf course at a recent networking event run by Suffolk RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) matrics group.
Several surveyors, young professionals and local businesses spent the evening networking on our 9 hole mini golf course. The event was organised by Dayle Bayliss of Dayle Bayliss Construction Consultants.
The venue was Shelley’s Restaurant (aptly named restaurant for me at this event!). This took place at Suffolk New College in Ipswich.
Shelley’s restaurant is a modern, vibrant and inspiring learning environment for today’s hospitality student. They were on fine display throughout the evening attending to our beverage and snack requirements (the mini carrot cakes were particularly delicious!)
The evening was a way to enjoy the canapes made by the students, network with other like minded individuals, while enjoying a round of golf.
And of course adding some competition amongst the networkers awarding the best 9 hole round and a wooden spoon price for the highest number of shots on the course.
Having laid out the 9 hole course I was able to set out a course suitable for the audience who had a golf handicap of 21, to some that have never played crazy golf.
The lowest round was an impressive 19 with two hole-in-ones and Matthew Moore went on to win a prize for the hole-in-one draw aswell as the lowest score over 9 holes. The wooden spoon prize went to Ben Moore for completing the 9 holes in a total score of 43.
A fun evening was had by all and a special thanks to Dayle Bayliss for organising the event and ensuring a good night.
