Stewart Selbie, the previous General Manager at Turnberry Resort commented “We are delighted Turnberry has been chosen as the host venue for the final of NGCC in 2011. The Ailsa Course will provide the ideal challenge for the climax of next year’s event. Help for Heroes is an extremely hard working and high profile charity which we are delighted to support alongside our friends at Your Golf Travel.”

Home to the iconic Ailsa, an Open Championship course four times over, Turnberry offers one of the world’s great golfing experiences. Watson, Norman and Price have all won the famous Claret Jug at Turnberry. And, in 2009, Stewart Cink added his name to that exclusive list following his play-off triumph over Tom Watson at the 138th Open.

The Ailsa is currently ranked as Britain’s number one golf course by two leading golf publications and consistently rated within the world’s best.

The two day National Golf Club Challenge Grand Final, sponsored by YoutGolfTravel.com will include a practice day, golf clinic, overnight accommodation, the final competition, a gala dinner, guest speakers and the prize presentations.

“We are thrilled to work with the world renowned Turnberry golf resort. Playing at Turnberry truly is one of the greatest golfing experiences and is the ideal venue to conclude the 2011 National Golf Club Challenge.” said event organiser, Stacey Jeffries, “Turnberry is an exceptional golf venue, having played host to many prestigious tournaments – including The Open Championship four times.”

“With leading partners such as Turnberry and YourGolfTravel.com for next year’s final, we are well positioned to improve on our success in 2010 by raising another huge donation for Help for Heroes.”

YourGolfTravel.com, Europe’s fastest growing golf-travel company, will headline sponsor the 2011 National Golf Club Challenge final. As long time supporters of Help for Heroes, YourGolfTravle.com contributed significantly to the challenge competition’s success in 2010.
