It’s ‘par-tee’ time for your golf-loving friends and family! Whether you are planning a retirement party for a true duffer or a corporate event with the theme of the prestigious Master’s Tournament, Seacoast Events can help with your planning and activities for this much-beloved sport.
While the origins of golf are hotly debated, no one can deny that it is one of the world’s most popular games. According to most historians, the modern game of golf originated in Scotland in the 15th Century. However, some scholars argue that the Romans played a similar sport called Paganica. Both games require the use of a club and the hitting of a ball skillfully to acquire the least amount of “strokes.”
Let’s explore this time-honored sport and see how Seacoast can supply all the fun your golf-themed event desires.
A February 2024 Global Golf Participation report estimates that over 61 million people are involved with golf globally. The on-course participation pool in America is at 45 million. That’s a large chunk of the population that plays the game.
These numbers don’t even include the people who play occasionally or play pitch-and-putt on the side as a recreational activity. So, it’s a given to say that golf is a wildly popular American pastime.
The reasons why the sport is so popular range from the health benefits of being outdoors, walking and practicing good cardiovascular exercise during each game, to the fact that it is a great social activity that helps prevent cognitive decline of people of all ages. Most people point to the idea that golf isn’t just something that can be played by professionals, but something that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and ability levels throughout their lifetime.
Due to the popularity of the game of golf, many people hosting retirement parties, birthday parties or corporate events choose golf as an activity to keep children and adults alike entertained.
