Gary Lineker Charity Golf Day

Once again our patron, Gary Lineker hosted his celebrity golf day in aid of Fight for Life and sponsored by Walkers Snackfoods, now in its 13th year. This year it was held at the beautiful Grove in Chandlers Cross Hertfordshire.

The sun shone, and the golfers were treated to the first class service for which the Grove is renowned. Each team had their own buggies, the use of ‘E-Score’ a fantastic electronic scoring system and were offered continual refreshments courtesy of Walkers.

After five wonderful hours of golf the players and their guests were invited to the Amber suite for a champagne reception followed by a superb dinner in the ballroom. The atmosphere was electric as the wonderfully funny Bobby Davro hosted the auction and followed with some superb entertainment. Mcfly’s Danny Jones rocked the house as he took to the microphone with an impromptu performance of ‘Mustang Sally’ and Brendan Cole danced his fiancé Zoe across the floor …… Oh what a night.!!!!!

Gary Lineker finished the evening with the prize presentations (winners were Bryan Benson’s team), a thankyou to all involved for their wonderful generosity and all the supporters raised their glasses to 2010.

"What a wonderful day we had at the Grove. Definitely our best day and night yet. The golf was great and the dinner was a lot of fun with Bobby Davro in top form. In difficult times we raised lots of money for Fight for Life and by doing so know we are making a real difference to the survival chances of children with cancer. Join us next year. (Date tbc)"
