Fairway Footy
Aussie Golfer scours the internet and media to keep you up to date with new ideas and information from the golf world, usually with an Australian bias.
With footy season almost upon us (is it getting earlier and earlier each year?) I found this concept which combines your footy team with your own golf score!
Here’s what Fairway Footy is about. You get a team of four golfers together from your home golf club and nominate the team’s favourite football team from the AFL or NRL when you register.
Each week a score is calculated from your golf team AND you nominated footy team. And just like the footy, if you finish in the top 8 teams, you play finals.
It is a bizarre concept but sounds like it just might work!
There’s some pretty good prizes on offer such as 2011 Presidents Cup packages and Callaway drivers. See Fairway Footy website for all the details.
