Book Blues Foundation's Charity Golf Day 2022 now!
Following the success of our recent fundraising efforts, Blues Foundation are pleased to announce details for another fun filled Charity Golf Day at Bedford & County on Thursday 6th October to help raise additional vital support for our charity.
This will be the third Charity Golf Day we have held following previous events in September 2020 at The Bedford Golf Club and last in May 2021 at Pavenham Park Golf Club. Across those two days, nearly £5,000 was raised towards our future activation and has since been put into good use right the way across Bedfordshire.

WHAT THEY SAID LAST YEAR:
Bedford Blues legend and now key sponsor of Blues Foundation, Sacha Harding commented: “It’s been great to learn a bit more about Blues Foundation and what they’re doing to help everyone in the community. It was just awesome to see some of the guys I used to play with and to learn about the other side of the club, and see that Blues Foundation are doing good things.”
Recent Premiership winner and 44-cap England wing, Chris Ashton said: “It was great to be at the Blues Foundation Charity Golf Day. Hopefully all the money that we’ve raised can go towards good causes.”
Bedford Blues legend, Ben Whetstone added: “I had a fantastic day on the Blues Foundation Chairty Golf Day. It’s the first time anything has felt normal for a long while; great company and great to see Blues Foundation keeping up their good work in the community.”
The cost for a fourball is £280 per team which includes all green fees, breakfast bap on arrival, a hot meal post round, fantastic prizes and a great day out with us!
As well as a day of friendly competition between friends and colleagues on the course, prizes will be available for winning teams and best score, as well as longest drive and nearest the pin competitions.
WHAT YOUR SUPPORT WILL GO TOWARDS:
Blues Foundation were extremely proud to launch some key flagship activation across the past 12 months including Tackle LIFE, ABILITY Blues and Blues INSPIRE projects.
We are now proud to deliver Rugby and Reading and Rugby and Numbers, as well as other bespoke rugby coaching and programmes since the integration of Blues Community with Blues Foundation.
And there is so much more resource Blues Foundation want to tap into and utilise – and the proceeds will help go towards this, alongside some other fundraising opportunities for the remainder of 2022 that are still yet to be announced.
COULD YOU SPONSOR THE 2022 EVENT?
Sponsorship opportunities are available for all 18 holes, as well as the longest drive and nearest the pin competitions. We were indebted to our sponsors last year – SDC Builders Ltd, Blue Chip, Woods Hardwick and Bullerwell – and look forward to working with likeminded businesses on the day to allow us to continue our work in the community.
