How To Plan An Awesome Company Golf Trip

how-to-plan-an-awesome-company-golf-trip

If you want to plan an awesome company golf trip then there are several steps that you should focus on taking. First, you need to pick the destination. Will the trip be domestic or foreign?  Under almost all circumstances a domestic company golf vacation is far more economical than a trip across the pond. Also, you will need to know how many people will be embarking on the vacation? Will spouses be traveling? Typically, large groups receive greater discounts and more opportunities. This type of incentive trip could potentially increase your companies revenue, and give employees a greater sense of camaraderie.

Three Steps to Creating a Memorable Golf Trip

Here are the steps you should take to create a truly memorable golf trip:

  1. Advanced Planning:  The sooner you start planning the better the deals. The best travel bargains are always scored with advanced planning. Ideally, your company golf outing should be planned at least 9 to 12 months prior to the departure date. Without adequate reservations, you probably won’t get your choice of tee times.
  2. Budget: A long weekend golf trip that includes meals should average $99 to $125 per person, according to Golf Advisor. The west coast of the United States is usually on the higher end than the east coast. Stay-and-play packages are extremely thrifty and usually provide perks such as free meals. Many even boast afternoon replays in the price.
  3. Hotel Stays: You can often book a hotel separate from the golf resort but in most cases booking accommodations, meals, and golf together saves you a considerable amount of money.

Activities for Non-Golfers

Company vacations frequently allow spouses to tag along but, many times, they do not golf. A golf vacation is fun for everyone, even non-golfers. Most of the resorts feature spas, swimming pools, and upscale dining opportunities.

Booking an awesome company golf trip does not have to strain the budget. With a bit of thrifty shopping you can create a memorable adventure. You might also want to throw in a company tournament to make things exciting. Most golf resort locations are more than happy to accommodate your unique needs.
