A trophy carries dust. Memories last forever."

Footgolf, what in the world is footgolf? That is a question asked all thye time by people around our community.  The simple answer is soccer and golf together creating a family and exciting game for all ages! One of the first couples to play the game were over 70 and we have had three year kids people.  You sit the soccer ball on the groud at each hole and kick it until in goes in the two feet round hole anywhere from 200 yards to sixty yeards away.  Keep track of the kicks and that is your score for that hole!  Pretty simple yet fun!!

The sport of FootGolf as we know it today (including attire, etiquette and general rules)  was created in the Netherlands by Bas Korsten & Michael Jansen of commercial creativity agency Nothing in 2008. Loosely basing it on a post-training game played by Korsten's brother - professional soccer player Willem Korsten, during his time at English soccer club Tottenham Hotspur (1999 - 2001). When Spurs players would end training sessions by kicking the balls from the training-pitch back to the changing rooms in as few kicks as possible.

The sport was officially launched as FootGolf when Korsten, Jansen and a team of colleagues set up a national and international bond, and organised the first tournament to be played on a golf course (Nederlandse Kampioenschap FootGolf) at prestigious Golfbaan Het Rijk van Nijmegen on September 6th, 2009. This tournament, later televised on RTL7, was played by Dutch professional and ex-professional soccer players and won by Theo Janssen.
