Things You'll Need:
- Event budget
-
Step 1
Learn what IGP does. The company plans, manages and coordinates golf events of all shapes and sizes, both private and professional.
-
Step 2
Contact IGP at (561) 799-4600.
-
Step 3
Ask an IGP representative about this year's schedule of professional events and for ticket information.
-
Step 4
Check back often. The company's docket of golf events is continually changing.
-
Step 1
Plan your event without regard to size. IGP is experienced in helping plan and execute tournaments of all sizes.
-
Step 2
Ask IGP what other professional golf tournaments they are currently managing and, if possible, plan to attend one of its pro tour events. Use the opportunity to observe the behind-the-scenes machinations at work in a pro golf tournament to anticipate things you'll need to address when planning your own.
-
Step 3
Figure out, as best you can, how large a field of competitors you expect to attend the tournament. Depending on the type of tournament you want to arrange, IGP can also help you structure the tournament's playing rounds.
-
Step 4
Use IGP's services to plan a company golf tournament or to plan and host a charity golf event. Begin by familiarizing yourself with the company's pedigree and its current event management staff by browsing its website (see Resources below).
-
Step 5
Create a set of guidelines to which tournament participants will adhere. Remember that IGP can also help you market your tournament if you want to drum up more individual or corporate participation.
-
Step 6
Leave the logistics to IGP once you have secured a tournament site. In the meantime, make your own efforts to promote the golf event if you want to find more people to attend it.
-
Step 7
Look for sponsorship opportunities if you're planning to hold a large-scale charity golf event. Drumming up the support of local business will not only help you meet the costs of IGP's services, but will also increase the payday for the charities for which you are raising money.
