ALBATROSS GOLF TOURS

NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2011

WHAT’S GOING ON ?

Local Courses Gearing up for the European Tour School

Some of you guys who played in September and earlier this month at Las Colinas will have noticed the work being undertaken to get the course ready for the European Tour School Fase 2 – it is now well under way and the course is significantly improving, although being made tougher as all the fringes have now been over seeded and are growing up all around the greens. Well its not just Las Colinas but also both El Valle and La Manga South course which is also hosting fase 2 of the tour school so we look forward to the many hopefuls arriving in the area in the first week of December and look forward to seeing some great golf

AN OFFICE AT LAST!!

Ok so it may not be the most expansive shop in the world but I do now have an office and small shop – I am now based in the old office in the Breakaways complex which is part of the old Edificio el Tiron in Villamartin. From the entrance to Campoamor Golf Course travel the short distance up the road to the Mercadona Supermarket at the roundabout take the right hand road and travel 200mts down this road and you will come to the commercial centre (you will see the Rendevous Bar in front of you). Park here in the car park and walk round the opposite side to Rendevous and you will see Breakaways Bar underground – I am in here. Open from 11-2 & 5-7 during the weekdays and 11-1 on Saturdays. As you would expect I am the cheapest for Balls, Gloves etc and always carry 7 sets of hire clubs which rent out at 15€ day or 30€ per 3 days per set.

I now also carry a full range of Benross Equipment – Bags from 39€, Drivers from 99€, Fairways from 79€, Utilities from 69€, Wedges from 59€, Putters from 49€- All brand new high quality equipment at the keenest prices.

I look forward to meeting you here, where I will continue from, until I find the right premises for a larger shop
