Longfield Tigers FC Golf Day 2025: Another Fantastic Success at Chelsfield Lakes

Our annual Longfield Tigers FC Golf Day returned in May 2025 – and once again, it was a huge success! Held at the brilliant Chelsfield Lakes Golf Centre, this much-loved event brought together over 90 players and supporters for a day of friendly competition, laughter, and fundraising in support of our self-funded club.

With a shotgun start and teams playing in four balls, the day kicked off with tea, coffee, and bacon rolls before heading out for 18 holes of Stapleford competition.

A Fun Twist – The Token Challenge

To inject some extra fun (and fundraising), each team was given 3 paper tokens at the start of the round. These were passed between players based on key moments:

Last player to make 3 putts
Last player to lose a ball
Last player to land in a bunker

At the end of the round, any player holding a token was kindly asked to make a £5 penalty donation per token – a light-hearted way to raise additional funds for the club.

A Huge Result for the Club

Thanks to everyone’s incredible generosity and support, this year’s Golf Day raised an amazing £4,952.00. These funds go directly toward essential running costs – including kits, equipment, pitch hire, and referee payments – helping us keep football free and accessible for all young players at Longfield Tigers FC.
