ABOUT THE ANNUAL ADAM MILLICHIP MEMORIAL GOLF CHALLENGE

1. Once again, our venue is the beautiful Cleobury Mortimer Golf Club where you will enjoy the fantastic scenery and challenging golf.

   The cost of the day is £32.50 each or £130 a team. Every single penny of profit made from the Adam Millichip Annual Golf Day is donated directly to The Adam Millichip Foundation.

   

   The Adam Millichip Foundation was founded in November 2010 by the organisers of this golf day and has one goal.

   "To provide financial support and assistance to disabled people who wish to participate in sports, with the aim of improving the quality of their lives."

   With the tragic death of his Brother Adam in 2007, Stuart Millichip wanted to do something in his memory. In May 2010 he and 3 other committee members founded the Adam Millichip Memorial Golf Challenge, which in it's first year raised over 7000 pounds, which was donated to 2 local charities. The main prize was won by Mark Fish, Simon Eades, Dave Pain and Tom Pain, who enjoyed a week at a luxury apartment in Bodrum in Turkey. The winners of the family trophy were the Pain brothers, Dave and Tom, which was donated by the Tenbury and district Round Table. After the huge success of this project, the quiet whisper of more became a reality. Shortly after the golf day, Stuart approached the rest of the committee with the idea of a fully registered charity in memory of his brother. The Adam Millichip Foundation had been born.

   The 4 founding trustees of the Adam Millichip Foundation are Stuart Millichip, Adams Brother, who is the chairman while Mark Benbow, Mark Fish and Paul Millichip are the other 3 trustees. Claire Owen is the charity secretary. We are a registered charity in England and Wales under the regulation of the Charity Commission with registered number 1138721.

   In 2011 the day raised over £8500 for The Adam Millichip Foundation. The main prize was won by Gary Mann, Wayne Smith, Sam Pain & Mikey Jacks who won a weekend away in Ireland for the Irish Open. Also winning a trophy were Garry & Matthew Hawes who won the family prize, where two family members - not necessarily playing in the same four ball, can compete for the family trophy - with the winning two obtaining the highest amount of combined points after their round.

   The key information about the 2012 day will be announced in due course.
