The continued growth of the tournament has helped the club secure a headline sponsor for the first time
Cork City FC have announced they will return to the Lee Valley Golf Club for their annual golf classic on Thursday August 20th.
The annual event is a key fundraiser for the club and a welcome day out for fans, players, and businesses that support the club, and it allows them to interact with each other in a relaxed environment.
Due to the continued growth and success of the annual Golf Classic, the event will, for the first time since it took place in 2012, have a headline sponsor – family-owned compressed air specialists Airtech Compressors from Little Island in Cork.
The cost to enter for a team of three is €300, while tee box and green sponsorship options are also available at a cost of €100. The tournament format is a scramble competition with many great prizes up for grabs on the day.
