Tenovus Junior Golfing Challenge

Tenovus, the leading Welsh cancer charity is calling all junior golfers to take part in the ‘Junior Relay Golf’ challenge.

Tenovus is the official charity for Ryder Cup Wales 2010 Ltd. To celebrate this partnership Tenovus is aiming to club together all of the junior golfers of Wales. The Junior Relay Golf challenge is a fundraising relay event, with 10 juniors playing in relay for 10 hours!

The event, which is sponsored by Asbri Golf, will take place in golf clubs across Wales, and clubs have throughout August to pick a day to take on the challenge. Each team member is asked to raise a minimum of £20 sponsorship. If your club would like to take part contact Tenovus on golf@tenovus.com or call Sarah on 02920 768864.

The team who raises the most wins a practice day ticket each for the Ryder Cup Wales 2010, with adult tickets added so that parents can go along too! The runners up will receive an official 2010 merchandise prize each (worth approximately £20), kindly donated by Asbri.

Claudia McVie, Tenovus Chief Executive said:

“Cancer incidence in Wales is 22% higher than in England, and Tenovus is working to meet the needs of today’s cancer patients by delivering cancer treatment and services closer to their homes.

“The money raised from this event will go towards funding the first mobile unit of its kind in Wales along with a network of local support centres to deliver the best cancer care.”

Tenovus needs the support of people in the community through volunteering, donating or fundraising to make this happen. Find out more at www.tenovus.org.uk or phone 02920 768850.
