Some of you may have already seen a thread for a proposed Inter-Services match in the "arrange a game" section.
If you haven't, please take a minute to take a look to see if you can help or if you want to take part as we're hoping to raise some money for the above charity as a result of the match. (Venue & Date TBA)
http://forums.golf-monthly.co.uk//showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/188668/Main/188491/#Post188668 (You'll have to wade through a bit of banter I'm afraid) :o

The thread has more details, but briefly we're looking to get a game organised between current & ex serving members of HM forces, (plus hopefully a team from the forum & the GM staff and teams from the Public Sector).

It's in the embryonic stage at present and nothing has been confirmed, but early indications are promising.

The reason for this post was just to draw attention to the thread to give it as much coverage as possible. We will be looking to register the event officially in due course and set up a web donation page on the Help for Heroes site so that people can donate if they wish, even if they can't get involved in the golf.
We are looking to limit this to around 32 golfers to keep it manageable. The goal is primarily to arrange a fun golf match with the added bonus of raising some money for a very worthwhile cause.

If you want to read how the game came about, you can follow the inception in the "Woodhall Spa Coaching" thread in the "Post a Review" section, before we moved it to the "Arrange a game" section.
Thanks in advance for any support..

Just bumping this thread to see if there's any interest from newcomers who haven't yet read the "Arrange a game" thread.
Arrangements are in full swing now and we have already raised £400.
We are playing at the Luton Hoo on Friday April 16th and the day will be featured in Golf Monthly magazine.

If you are interested in playing, or would just like to donate, full details are in the thread entitled "Re Inter-services match".
