Putting Contest Insurance Can Add Some Excitement to Your Event

Something that happens often is a lack of sign ups. For example, a company may be hosting their annual golf tournament. While you and some of the other top executives are excited about the event, you are struggling to get others interested. You decide it may be time to offer something a bit more tempting to them, to draw them in to the event and to keep them there for whatever reason you have. A putting contest insurance is a great way to do this.

One question that is often asked is about the amount of advance notice Foresite Sports needs to have in order to provide this type of putting contest insurance to cover out the tournament. The good news is that flexibility is just part of the job here.

When you contact the company today, you will learn what the cost of obtaining putting insurance will be and you will receive an application. Fax that application back and it takes just a few days after that to get everything set up. You will receive a Certificate of Participation, which is your signal that you are in fact covered for your putting contest. If you need something done sooner, let us know.

Let’s say things change right up until your tournament. The grand prize you are offering has helped you to get many more signups than you thought. What can you do? The good news is that you can contact Foresite Sports right up until that first putter gets started to add a new person to the list.

As you can see, you do not have to wait long to get putting coverage for your golf contest. Get the process started by calling on Foresite Sports to get a quote. From there, the rest is as easy as a day on the green!

What are the Hole In One Insurance Bonus Prizes?

Adding a hole in one insurance grand prize to your golf tournament will add excitement and interest to your big day. Once our customers receive a quote for a grand prize, the next question is usually “what else is included in that price?” While Foresite Sports includes a number of different “freebies” comprising of signs, shipping and additional coverage the most impressive by far to our clients are the bonus prizes included in each and every hole in one insurance grand prize package.

The bonus prizes allow the customer to cover all of the par 3 holes with a prize at no additional cost. In addition to the grand prize like a large cash option or new car, the remaining par 3’s on the course will each have one of the following prizes,

  1. An LCD Flat Screen Television from Sharp
  2. A Set of Callaway Diablo Irons
  3. Two Round Trip Airline Tickets anywhere in the Continental US

The requirement to use the bonus prize package is simple, the prize just has to be on a par 3 hole that is 130 yards or greater for the men (remember the ladies can always play 15 yards less than the men). Unlike the grand prize hole, any bonus prize hole does not need an additional witness, as long as the tournament will play with threesomes or foursomes, the playing partners can act as witnesses in the case of a winner. Foresite Sports wants you to get the most bang for your buck so even if you have 5 or 6 par 3’s on the course that meet the 130 yards requirement we will allow you to double up on your favorite bonus prize!

Dice Roll Promotion Prize Insurance

The Dice Roll Promotions is one of Foresite Sports most popular prize insurance; all the contestants have to do to win is roll the dice to spell out the winning word. Foresite Sports highly recommends the Dice Roll Promotion prize insurance to their clients who are unsure which contest to choose. It is not only easy to run and affordable, it can be done at almost any type of event such as tradeshows, fundraisers, company parties or event sporting events. The Dice Roll Promotion prize insurance can be one two different ways based on the number of people in your event.

The first and most popular way of running the contest is at events with a large crowd such as a trade show. By offering the dice roll contest at your booth you will drive in traffic with the chance to give away a grand prize to each and every person who comes to your table. The 5 or 6 dice promotion is affordably priced for events with hundreds or even thousands of guests.

The second way to run the promotion is to give the chance to roll the dice to one or two lucky people. This could be done at a company party where the person with the most sales gets selected or you could use it as a fundraising idea and sell raffle tickets to the crowd and pick out one winning ticket. For either of these examples we would recommend doing the 3 or 4 dice promotion prize insurance. With less people you will be able to use less dice, giving that one individual a better chance to win!

For either promotion Foresite Sports will handle making and sending you the dice at no extra charge. You will also be able to customize the dice to spell any word you like that will coincide with your event. Foresite Sports can also create a customized sign with your logo to promote the contest. For more information and pricing give us a call at 888-882-5140.

West Virginia Golf Course For Sale: Considered Birthplace for American Golf

In Charleston,West Virginia, a golf course called Oakhurst Links has been put on the market. This course is considered the birthplace of American golf, due to its long history and the fact that you can still find sheep roaming the fairways from time to time. The first competition to take place at the golf course was in 1884. And, the owner, who has owned and run the course for the last 50 years, says it is time for someone else to manage it.

The golf course is only nine holes. There is also an onsite museum at the course. The course is now on the market for $4.5 million. The goal is for a new owner to be found who will continue to maintain the course as it is or improve it. The owner, Lewis Keller is 86 and is the self proclaimed “custodian” of the course.

The course is important, and as such as is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Tournaments were held in the early portion of the summer, but the course is no longer open to the public. The property has only been on the market for a few months but the goal is to preserve the history of the facility so that future generations can enjoy the very foundation of golf in the country.

In addition, that is just what happens when one plays there. When you do, you are required to use replica hickory clubs and you have to hit gutta percha balls that are molded from sap of the sapodilla tree. To make a tee, you need to form them, by hand, from a mound of wet sand. There are no electric carts on the course either. In addition, as mentioned, you may even see a herd of sheep crossing the fairway from time to time.

Double Holes In One for Scottish Player

One hole in one is pretty amazing and most golfers would be ecstatic to accomplish such a desired achievement. While one is quite an accomplishment, you often hear about a golfer’s great hole in one story and working at Foresite Sports, we hear them a lot more often that you think. Now say that one person got another hole in one, heads would turn and everyone would have to agree that he is a very talented player. Taking it one step further, what if this golfer scored two holes in one in one day, on 9 holes? One word comes to mind: unbelievable!

This is the story of Adam Smith, a 47 year old technician, who holds a 7 handicap. It occurred during winter league play at Stonehaven Golf Club, Smith only had time to play 9 holes so he teed off on the 18th (during the winter season Stonehaven changes up the order of the holes) a 163 yard par 3 with a 4 iron. He says he could tell the ball was close but it was still visible from the tee box so he knew it didn’t go in. As he approached the hole however the ball was no where to be seen, Smith says it must have been resting on the pin and finally fell in. The second ace came on hole number 7 a short 132 yard par 3 with a raised green, making it impossible to see the ball. Smith and his playing partner had hit similar shots but it was Smith’s ball that was sitting in the cup. Smith’s accomplishments beat odds of 67,000,000 to 1 on the front nine, who knows what would have happened had he been able to finish the round!

How Do I Pick A Hole In One Hole?

At Foresite Sports we understand that some of our clients have been playing golf since they were young and others have never stepped foot on a golf course. Thanks to our knowledgeable and helpful tournament consultants you don’t need to be educated about the game of golf in order to get a hole in one policy in place. All you need to figure out where to offer your hole in one prize is a score card from the pro shop and we can talk you through the rest. A hole in one prize will always be offered on a par 3 hole, these are the shortest on the golf course and will range in yardages from 90 yards to 200 yards, on average there will be 4 par 3 holes on the golf course you are playing.

Once you have narrowed down the par 3 holes, double check with a pro at the golf course if there is a hole they prefer to use for a grand prize. This is especially important if you are giving away a car or motorcycle because the pro may suggest a par 3 close to the clubhouse so you don’t have to drive a car out to the farthest point on the golf course. If you are giving away a cash prize, any par 3 over 150 yards will work for the grand prize hole. For the remaining par 3’s on the course we can also supply you with our bonus prizes so you have all of the par 3’s covered at no additional cost. For more information or questions about hole in one insurance give us a call at 888-882-5440.
