COMPETITION FORMAT
This tour has been designed to attract golfers from all over the UK, golfers who want to spend a week
relishing a great golfing experience whilst enjoying the beautiful coastal and country views that the area has to offer.
For each round you will be matched with new playing partners from other teams, so you will meet and enjoy the company of other golfers.
Over the first 3 days of 4BBB your pairs will
play in consecutive 10 minute tee times and be matched with a different pair from another team each day, so you will meet and enjoy the company of other golfers.
On the 4th day your team will all play together, with the best 2 scores counting on each hole.
Whether your favourite hole is the 9th at St. Annes Old Links, voted by Golf World as the top 9th hole in Great Britain, or the risk and reward challenge of the 9th at Fairhaven, the tight but picturesque 177 yard 3rd at Penwortham, or the stunning par 5 signature hole 17th at Preston, you will be left with many fond memories of the Classic long after the experience.
