The traditional end of season competiton is nearly here again as we gear up for the fourth annual Kent Open taking place on Sunday 1st November at Strokes Adventure Golf in Margate.

Kicking off at 11am prompt on the Sunday the fabled greens of Strokes will be hosting yet another classic competition. Played over three rounds (54 holes in total), the winner will be crowned the Kent Open Champion following in the footsteps of Steve Vallory, Sean Homer and Andy Exall, and take home the Kent Open trophy.

Entry to the competition is just £10 and there will be numerous prizes on offer throughout the competition, including the Aces Champion, Junior Aces Champion and also for the Novice Champion (for anyone outside of the top 15 ranked players playing in their first or second Kent Open) and the top placed non BMGA player.

The day will also see the Kent Junior Open contested for the first time – free entry to under 16’s (please note all juniors must be accompanied by a responsible adult) – the juniors will all play 3 rounds as per the main competition but only their best round counts for the competition (the lowest round takes the title of Kent Junior Open champion and the honour of being the first player to pick up the Junior trophy).
