Our team undertake 72 holes and 26 miles

Putt your hands together for the RDP Golf Marathon Team who are taking on 72 holes – and walking at least 26 miles in one day to raise money for Prostate Cancer UK.

It’s a worthy cause – one in eight men will get prostate cancer – that’s a lot of dads, brothers, partners, grandads, mates, sons and uncles. Hopefully some of you will chip in and help save more lives even sooner.

Organiser Shaun “The Slice” Robson, has created an enthusiastic team who are ready to do their best and have some fun! “The team are filled with trepidation – it is a considerable challenge – and we’re not ultra-competitive golfers, we don’t take ourselves too seriously, so it’s just going to be a matter of doing our best and making sure we back it up by getting the funds in.”

Simon Fitton from Orton meadows Golf Course has kindly covered all the green fees for us on the day and permitted us early access to help us achieve our goals.

RDP’s Bob “Out of Bounds” Holness is keen to finish and is hoping not to just end up hacking his way round the course!” Jac “Dojo” De Wet said “the idea of the “Golf Marathon” stood out to me immediately. My Dad has taken part in the same challenge – twice before – and after telling me how bad it really was, I couldn’t wait to get involved! Jokes aside, it is for a cause that means a lot to me. My Grandpa was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2019 and sadly passed away later that year, so it was a no-brainer to take part.”
