World Corporate Golf Challenge Information

The World Corporate Golf Challenge is an international #networking and corporate #golf event. The World Corporate Golf Challenge began in the United Kingdom in 1993 with The Times Newspaper. The intention was simple: provide companies with a platform that would help enhance relationships both internally (incentives, communications, human resources, etc.) and externally (clients, suppliers, etc.). In 1997, the event became so successful in the UK that the concept was rolled out worldwide until it reached countries such as India, Malaysia, Norway, Sweden, Spain, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, and Australia. As a result, the event is now an international network of national amateur golf tournaments promoted and run independently by organisations (the licensees) in association with local and national print media partners. The annual winners from each territory compete in the World Final, representing their company and their country. In 2007, the Spanish company OM Sports bought the majority shareholding in the British company World Corporate Golf Challenge Ltd. The main objective of the new management team was to increase the number of countries where the event was played. All the World Finals celebrated under the new team directions have been a great sporting and organisational success, considered by all the licensees as the best world finals in the event's history. In summary, The World Corporate Golf Challenge is the world's most significant corporate golf tournament. Since its inception more than 30 years ago, over one million golfers have competed globally for the chance to represent their company and country at the World Finals.
