2011 Leuka Mini Masters – Play with Poulter

By June 27, 2011No Comments

Leuka-Mini-MastersThe Leuka Mini Masters is a unique annual charity golf tournament hosted by Dougray Scott where golf meets a summer garden party. This year the tournament will return to Dukes Meadows on the 15th of July. All money raised will certainly go to a worthy cause as Leuka raises funds to support life-saving research into the causes and treatment of leukaemia and other blood disorders. Its goal is simple: to create a better future for patients both here in the UK and abroad.

The fun filled charity golf tournament becomes more outlandish and fun year after year with the golf being played to live music from a huge rock stage, professional golfers stationed around the course to help with tricky shots and mini games and bars dotted around the course.

Teams of three will be captained by a celebrity player and a giant TV screen will broadcast the action all over the course, giving you the chance to relive your best shots. Following a fun filled day on the course all players will attend a post play dinner where prizes will be handed out and players will have a chance to do their bit for Leuka at the charity auction.

Up for grabs is a dream golf holiday package that will see you playing a round of golf at Lake Nona with Ryder Cup star and two time World Matchplay Champion Ian Poulter. The package also includes Virgin Atlantic flights for three to Orlando, car hire, four nights at Reunion Resort & Club, including two rounds of golf on championship courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Tom Watson and of course a fourball and lunch with Ian Poulter at the exclusive Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando. Not only is the tournament not to be missed but it seems the auction prizes are also out of this world!

The tournament’s unique atmosphere has attracted some of the biggest names in celebrity golf including Tim Henman, Hugh Grant, Rob Brydon, Jimmy Tarbuck, Jimmy Nesbitt, Jodie Kidd and Gianluca Vialli to name but a few and with increasing interest in the event now is the time to book your place!
