Go the distance: Why every golfer should join The Big Golf Race

Whether you want to test your endurance, improve your game, make a real difference or just have fun, The Big Golf Race offers you an experience like no other. Here’s why you should sign up. 

Support prostate cancer research with every swing

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK, affecting 1 in 8 of our dads, brothers, partners and mates. It exists in every golf club. Yet there's still no routine screening programme for prostate cancer, meaning many men are diagnosed too late for effective treatment.

By taking part in The Big Golf Race, you’ll be transforming lives on and off the course by funding: 

• Revolutionary research: Developing better tests that can detect prostate cancer earlier, when treatment is most effective. 
  
  
• Awareness campaigns: Encouraging men to understand their risk and take action. 
  
  
• Treatment innovations: Improving care and outcomes for thousands of men.

Every swing, step and donation brings us closer to a future where all men at risk can be diagnosed early and treated effectively.

Joining The Big Golf Race means you’re playing for more than just the love of the game - you’re driving change that saves lives.

Experience the community spirit of The Big Golf Race

Golf has always been a social game, but The Big Golf Race takes that camaraderie to a whole new level. Whether you’re hitting the course with lifelong friends, family or colleagues, this action-packed golf day will strengthen the bonds you share. 

Many past participants have described it as a day like no other, filled with a shared sense of purpose where everyone is united by a common goal – to help the thousands of dads, uncles, brothers, partners and golf mates affected by prostate cancer. 

At the same time, this challenge creates memories that will last a lifetime as you share laughs with your teammates between holes and cheer each other on. And when you all reach the finish on the final green, the pride of completing the challenge together will fill you with a huge sense of accomplishment! 

The Big Golf Race is more than an event. It’s a celebration of community, determination and the power of coming together for a greater cause. 

How taking on The Big Golf Race can improve your game

Completing 36, 72, or even 100 holes in a single day is no easy feat, but it’s also a fantastic way to improve your golfing skills.

• Develop sharper strategies: Playing so many holes gives you ample opportunity to experiment with your technique and improve your decision-making skills. 
  
  
• Build mental toughness: Overcoming physical and mental fatigue helps you stay focused under pressure, both during the challenge and in future games.
  
  
• Gain valuable experience: Tackling different terrains, weather conditions and situations all in one day sharpens your adaptability and versatility as a player. 

By the end of The Big Golf Race, you’ll not only feel a sense of pride for contributing to an important cause but also notice improvements in your game. And who knows, it may even have a positive impact on your handicap! 

IMPROVE YOUR GAME

Stay fit while supporting a lifesaving cause

Golf is already a fantastic way to stay active, but taking on the extended challenge of The Big Golf Race elevates it to a full-body workout. Walking between 36 and 100 holes in one day offers incredible benefits for your physical and mental wellbeing. 

Participating helps you boost your health while helping others at the same time. Looking to improve your cardiovascular fitness? Walking several miles during the challenge keeps your heart healthy and boosts endurance. Want to strengthen your muscles? Carrying your bag and swinging your clubs for the day will engage multiple muscle groups, improving overall strength and coordination. Need to reduce your stress levels? Spending a day outdoors, immersed in a meaningful goal, reduces stress and increases focus. 

By joining The Big Golf Race, you’re not just supporting prostate cancer research - you’re investing in your own health and wellbeing. It’s a win-win for everyone!
