Hampshire-based Huxley Golf, the PGA’s official supplier of all-weather golf surfaces, has announced the appointment of a new, official distributor in southern Spain. As one of Europe’s most popular golfing destinations, the area is set to benefit from the local distribution and professional installation of Huxley Golf’s world-class all-weather professional greens, tees and practice aids.

The new partnership will provide hundreds of golf clubs and courses in Murcia,Valencia, Catalonia and further afield with the opportunity to enhance their playing facilities. The region has many thousands of registered golfers and Huxley Golf Spain, based between Valencia and Alicante at Benissa on the Costa Blanca, will supply market-leading practice aids and world-class synthetic, all-weather surfaces to help golfers in Spain develop their game.

Huxley Golf Spain is led by Managing Director Paul Webb Llano. The British-born PGA-qualified professional is a passionate golfer and a fluent Spanish speaker, having resided in Spain since 2003.

He said: “I first came across Huxley Golf in 1999 and, being a PGA professional, it has been easy to keep in touch and see their phenomenal progress since then.

“When the time came to create our own golf area in Spain, I wanted the best synthetic golf surfaces available, with the ball roll, reception and speed as close to natural grass as possible. With that in mind, Huxley Golf was the only call I made. Now, through this new partnership, I’m really excited to be working with Huxley Golf on a daily basis, as I believe their golf products and low-maintenance surfaces really are the finest available.”

Paul Huxley, Director of Huxley Golf, said: “We’re delighted to add Huxley Golf Spain to our growing list of global distributors. Paul Webb Llano is a highly respected and experienced PGA professional who is very passionate and knowledgeable about the game of golf. He has very high standards and will be an excellent ambassador for the Huxley Golf brand.”

“Paul’s local knowledge and understanding of the Spanish market and his determination to help golfers develop their game will enable Huxley Golf to tap into a thriving and ever popular golf scene, bringing premier quality-all weather installations to facilities across the region. Paul’s clear golfing goals include improving golfers’ short game from 100 yards in and helping them to practise the right way on the best surfaces. He is now all set to achieve these aims on the new Huxley all-weather surfaces at his demonstration ground in Benissa.”

Huxley Golf provides premier all-weather surfaces for golf around the world. Clients include training and coaching establishments, golf resorts, ranges and academies, as well as many well-known golfers and golf courses, including several Open Championship and Ryder Cup venues.
