Stacey Jeffries and his team have been part of the DG family for a number of years now and the relationship continues to grow year on year. Coupled with supporting the charity Help for Heroes, making a difference to the wounded men and women of our Armed Forces, our association with the Challenge is all the more satisfying. I hope more golfers and their clubs take part in the event this year and show thanks to our troops and their families.”

Direct Golf UK first supported the challenge back in 2011, contributing significantly to the success of the event in both 2011 & 2012. Their continued support this year as our ‘Official Retail Partner’ will go a long way to helping us raise another huge donation for Help for Heroes.”
