Hole in one for Xplore's corporate golf day!

Xplore recently hosted the first of our annual golf days! 

We were delighted to have players travel from near and far to join us for the day. Everyone met at the golf club and were introduced to each other over bacon rolls and coffee before the first team tee'd off at 1pm.

The teams were looked after throughout the game with cold refreshments and snacks along with score updates via Xplore's marketing team (with the aid of a well behaved golf buggy!)

Over the course we had 2 competitions, nearest to the pin and longest drive. It was a tight competition on both holes! 

The teams remained competitive throughout the game but all enjoyed great camaraderie and really enjoyed the afternoon. 

After 18 holes the teams returned to the club house where prizes were awarded for the competition winners and the overall winning team. 

The winning team 
The winning team, led by George Yardley from Xplore's UK head office was presented with a cheque for £100 to donate to a charity of their choice.  Very kindly the team asked that the money be donated to Childreach International, the charity that Xplore supports as a company.  Childreach International 'unlocks the potential of some of the worlds most marginalised children' and we are delighted to be able to contribute to this amazing charity. www.childreach.org.uk 

The evening was spent in the beautiful Suffolk town of Bury St Edmunds enjoying food, drink and tales from the day. 

The day was a huge success and we are really looking forward to next year's event… watch this space!
