Famara partners with FlingGolf UK

FAMARA, the innovative apparel brand renowned for its use of original art in design, has announced a partnership with FlingGolf UK, a revolutionary new sport that is said to be ‘shaking up the traditional golf landscape’.

FlingGolf, which originated in the US about 10 years ago, is played on traditional golf courses, but replaces the conventional set of clubs with a single, versatile stick that is similar to a lacrosse stick. The head of the Fling Stick is used to pick up the ball from the ground, carry it, and then launch it toward the target. Players ‘fling’ the golf ball instead of swinging, and use the straight face of the stick for putting.

FlingGolf has been embraced by enthusiasts for its simplicity and speed, and it continues to grow in popularity across the UK.

FAMARA has made its name by integrating original, vibrant artwork into luxury activewear. Known for its bold and unconventional designs, each piece in FAMARA’s collection is a statement of individuality, making it the perfect match for the non-traditional ethos of FlingGolf.

FAMARA’s sponsorship will support FlingGolf’s growth and bring an artistic flair to the sport, with bespoke apparel designed for FlingGolf players and fans alike.

“FAMARA is thrilled to support FlingGolf UK in bringing this exciting new sport to a wider audience,” said Elizabeth Harwood, owner and founder at FAMARA. “Just as FAMARA disrupts the fashion industry with art-inspired designs, FlingGolf is disrupting the game of golf. It’s a natural fit for us to come together and promote a sport that challenges the status quo and embodies the spirit of fun and creativity.”

FlingGolf UK’s Paul Baran said: “FlingGolf is revolutionising the way we think about sports. This innovative hybrid of lacrosse and golf makes the game accessible and inclusive, allowing players to get started quickly and enjoyably. Much like snowboarding transformed the skiing world, FlingGolf brings a fresh, fun, and dynamic experience to traditional golf courses. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or new to the sport, FlingGolf offers an exciting new way to enjoy the game.”

To celebrate the new partnership, FAMARA is launching a special edition FlingGolf apparel line, featuring dynamic designs inspired by the energy and excitement of the sport. Fans can look forward to a range of high-performance gear that combines the best of FAMARA’s artistic vision with the practicality needed for FlingGolf.
