What is Footgolf?

Footgolf is a combination of two of the world’s most popular sports; Football and Golf. Get your heart rate pumping on the greens as you navigate the golf course with a football at your feet, and try to get the ball into the oversized cups in as few shots as possible. Challenge your friends to this competitive alternative to a tee time and enjoy an active time on the golf course.

A game of Footgolf will take you about two hours to complete and doubles as a great outdoor workout that you can enjoy with family & friends or even work colleagues.  Footgolf is available 7 days a week from 3.00pm till sunset with last ‘Kick Off’ at 5.00pm.

All the equipment you need to play is provided, although you can bring your own football if you prefer. Wear appropriate clothing suitable for the surroundings such as fitness wear (shorts t-shirt etc) as well as indoor soccer shoes or sneakers.
