Team Building Afternoon

FootGolf team building afternoons are just perfect for your company's away day. You can arrive from lunch time and enjoy 9 or 18 holes of FootGolf on our glorious golf course, accompanied by your very own course marshal who will guide you around the course and offer help, or another football should yours end up in a pond! Enjoy our views over Pendle Hill and if you're lucky, on a clear day you might even see Blackpool Tower. Our FootGolf course is changeling enough for the keen sports person but also fun enough for those beginners amongst the ranks.

After FootGolf, you have use of our changing facilities to glam up, ready for our buffet which includes a wide selection of food to suit all tastes, and is just what you need after working up an appetite. Relax and unwind in our court yard garden which is the perfect sun trap on summer days.

'I really enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of FootGolf with work colleagues. The setting was beautiful and helped along by a glorious afternoon of sunshine. The staff were extremely helpful and happy which made the experience even more pleasurable. I personally neither play golf or football but still had a lot of fun. I would highly recommend to all.' Claire

'What a truly fantastic way to spend our Summer Company Afternoon out! Had a fantastic time, ...It was so straightforward to organise and the staff at the hotel and golf resort were 100%, couldn't fault them. The buffet was delicious and we picked a lovely day weather-wise, which made it absolutely spot on! Well done Mytton Fold,... we'll be back I'm sure.' Jayne

FootGolf

Simply take two great sports, football and golf and combine them to create FootGolf, the fastest growing sport in the world. To put it simply, you play golf with your feet. There's no heavy clubs to carry around and no need to speed hours on the course. All you need is some trainers, a size 5 football, your friends and an hour or two.

There are 10 basic rules to follow:


  1. Wear golf apparel all the time
  2. Your ball must be easy to identify
  3. Review the score card and wait your turn. Make sure your kick will not interfere with other players.
  4. The ball must be played in a single movement. Your foot should be set separate from the ball, clearly behind, before the kick.
  5. Wait to play until the ball has completely come to rest. (It is not legal to stop the ball from rolling with the wind)
  6. Kick off your ball from a position up to two meters behind round markers
  7. Play the ball from where it lies: it's not allowed to move the ball or remove jammed objects.
  8. The player farthest from the hole, is the first to kick the ball.
  9. If the ball lands in a water hazard, retrieve it within 2 steps from the closest land point from where the ball entered the water.
  10. Only on the greens may the balls be picked up to be cleaned or replaced.  


If you fancy giving it a go, we play each Sunday from 2pm and it's just £10 per person for 18 holes.
