This isn't just another golf tournament—it’s a celebration of Scottish culture and sporting excitement, Saturday, July 27 at Settlers Bay Golf Course.
Imagine 30 teams, comprising four golfers each, taking to the greens not just to play, but to revel in a festival of Scottish traditions. The air resounds with the haunting melodies of bagpipes and the rhythmic beats of drums. Amidst this vibrant backdrop, players contend in a golf tournament unlike any other, complete with Scotch tastings and Scottish-themed challenges that test both skill and spirit.

These sweet indulgences are not just treats but strategic game-changers, offering players a chance to bend the rules in the most delicious way possible. It's a playful addition that adds an extra layer of fun to every hole.
As the golfing winds down, the excitement does not. Participants and spectators alike are invited to the evening’s highlight—a traditional Ceilidh (Scottish party), where the festivities continue. Indulge in authentic Scottish cuisine that dances on the palate and enjoy foot-tapping Scottish entertainment. The night is filled with laughter, music, and camaraderie, concluding with prize giveaways that ensure every participant leaves with memories and possibly a trophy.
