Corporate Golf Testimonials

After the Heart Foundation's Heart Classic Corporate Day, I am delighted to recommend Gary Lisbon and GOLFSelect as a golf day co-ordinator.

This year was our most successful Heart Classic ever and the second that GOLFSelect has assisted with. All participants enjoyed the game and the dinner afterwards enormously.

Nothing is too much trouble for GOLFSelect. Gary attended all our committee meetings and contributed much more than the activites he was contracted to do. It was this extra sense of commitment to the success of the day that we particularly appreciated. He was a vital member of the organising team.

Gary and his staff are efficient and friendly, liaising with the golf club to secure a good date, arranging registrations on the day and keeping things moving from start to finish. It all resulted in a smooth running event.

The technological touches added a point of difference to the day. Players loved seeing themselves on the website and communication by email was fast and effficient. The CD added a novelty touch.

I am happy to recommend GOLFSelect to any organisation wishing to run a professional and enjoyable corporate golf day. I am happy to provide further information if required.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank GOLFSelect for your involvement in helping to make our DELL Computer Golf Day series the success they are.

The involvement of GOLFSelect from the outset has seen our golf days grow from a single Victorian event in 1999 to a National series of events (including New Zealand) in 2003/2004. Our golf days are a key part of our customer relationship program and your seamless involvement is an important part of this.

Many clients and staff have commented on your use of technology. In particular the pre game and post game websites were very well received with a large number of attendees looking at the photos and results of the days online the same day.

Also from our point of view, the email invitations, pregame information pack and expedient resolution of minor issues as they occurred ensured that our clients had an enjoyable and memorable day.

We have successfully raised the standard of golf days within the computer industry, and I appreciate that GOLFSelect played a major role in this achievement.

I look forward to working with you (and playing in) future Golf Days.

We would like to express our appreciation to you and Maureen for your association in the Crown Towers Golf Day held at New South Wales Golf Club.

The golf day was a major success due to the exceptional golf management skills, attention to detail and professionalism you possess. We particularly think your website is a bonus and looks great. We look forward to continuing our partnership with GOLFSelect in the future

Many thanks to the team at GOLFSelect for another outstanding performance at the Kenworth Invitational Golf Tournament.

From shortlisting the initial course recommendations and preliminary checks right through to the final speech, GOLFSelect were an invaluable resource, both on and off the course.

Your attention to detail delivered the highest quality CD and hard copy invitations, innovative prize suggestions, personalised score cards and website response facilities. This, when combined with your seamless management of the registration and scoring process, ensured that our management and their guests were able to focus solely on enjoying their day.

Kenworth customers are discerning and expect the best. With the friendly and professional assistance of GOLFSelect, the Kenworth Invitational Golf Tournament continues to set the benchmark within our industry.

We look forward to working with you again in the future.

Just a quick note to thank you and Jenny for helping to make Institutional Banking's Golf Day in Melbourne such a tremendous success.

We certainly achieved our objective of creating a memorable event and experience for clients, and I don't just mean the torrential rain. This golf day was markedly different from previous events, with a more professional approach and a number of noticeable improvements particularly on the side of technology. Both clients and staff have commented on the website, and in particular appreciated the quick posting of results and photos the following day. From my point of view, the various email communications and pregame information pack sent to clients were invaluable, ensuring that golfers were fully informed of arrangments for the day.

I also appreciated GOLFSelect's organisational excellence and golfing expertise at registration, on the course and in the calculation of the winners. Jenny and Maureen did a fantastic job in registering the golfers in an orderly and timely manner, and we would have been lost without a "chief bean-counter" to do the figures and calculate the scores over the shortened course.

We have successfully raised the standard of the Institutional Banking Golf Day in Melbourne, and I appreciate that GOLFSelect played a major role in this achievement.

I look forward to working with yourself and Jenny at future Commonwealth Bank Institutional Banking Golf Days

Just a brief note to express our appreciation for your efforts in arranging and managing our annual Golf Day at Yarra Yarra. As you may recall, our advisers had around 72 corporate and high net worth individual clients as guests on the day.

Additionally we had strong Financial Institutions support through both AMP and Mercury Asset Management. The feedback we received was extremely positive as attendees felt that the day was professionally managed, very friendly and enjoyable. The venue was considered to be excellent and everyone seems to be looking forward to the next event.

Congratulations to you and your team - we wish both you and GOLFSelect every success in the future

The recent Toshiba Golf Day was a brilliant success, fundamentally because of GOLF Select.

I have run several corporate golf days before and none have compared to the professionalism and smoothness of the golf day organized by you and your team.

Golf days are all about building relationships and allowing people to enjoy the day together. Your assistance from the outset made every step of the organisation process exceptional easy and allowed everyone to just relax and have fun.

As discussed, a day of golf is probably one of the best "value for money" ways of entertaining customers. Many of the staff also commented it was a great way of getting their customers undivided attention in a peaceful and tranquil environment.

I think you have perfected the whole process. The preparation and planning you provided was excellent. The use of email invitations and the web based RSVP process were particularly clean and efficient. Your team covered all the details such as agenda for the day, catering, awards, registrations, company logos on golf balls and tees, even logos on the course markers and flags.

As an organizer and a player on the day, the whole event was beautifully co-ordinated and I was particular proud to have our company associated with such a top class event.

I cannot praise your team highly enough, except to say we are already planning and thinking about next years TOSHIBA Golf Day with GOLF Select.

Thank you and look forward to next years event.

Forgive the delay in sending this through to you. All of us here at the Sheraton Towers Southgate are delighted with the way you developed and operated our Corporate Golf Day on May 15. A big thank you for all your effort.

As testimony to your input, the simple market research findings attached to the final follow letter to participants clearly indicated that the day had been a huge success.

The rain didn't deter people either. All the crew from the Sheraton Towers Southgate, whether playing or driving the "drinks carts" enjoyed the opportunity to build and develop their relationship with respective customers.

I'm pleasantly surprised as to how well your website has been received. The comment back from participants within the first few days was very positive. The inclusion of relevant photographs of winners on the website follow-up was of immediate interest. Well done. We look forward to working with you next year

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your efforts in relation to the organisation of the recent Herald Sun / Melbourne Mitsubishi Dealers' Annual Golf Day.

The seemingly effortless way you handled all aspects of the day - beforehand, on the day itself and afterwards - meant that all involved could concentrate on enjoying the day thoroughly without worrying about all those fiddly details that would have otherwise plagued us.

I have received very positive feedback from a number of the dealers and sponsors who attended the day. It was reassuring to know that we were in good hands - your extensive experience, as well as your attention to detail and the professionalism with which everything was handled, took all the worry out of the day for us.

I wish you all the best in the growth of GOLFSelect, and will not hesitate to recommend your services to others. We are all looking forward to next year's event at Yarra Yarra. Thanks and regards.

It is timely that I dropped you a line to thank you, Maureen and Monique for your services in planning and running an excellent day for us and our inaugural event at Spring Valley Golf Club.

In the past such events are normally a hassle and it was great to leave everything up to you and just let it develop, also the friendly and professional manner you handled the event on the day was exactly how we wanted our guests to be greeted.

Feedback from those that attended has been excellent and they all want to be involved in the next one. Please relay our appreciation to all involved including the staff at that wonderfully presented course.

Thank you for your efforts in relation to our Annual Golf Day.

I have received nothing but positive feedback from our customers and business partners.

From Ciba's perspective, we were able to build and develop on our relationships with our customers. We have certainly received a return from our investment. This return was largely made possible as a direct result of such a successful day. This successful day resulted due to your professionalism and your attention to detail.

Your website was also very well received and the after match photos posted on the website were viewed with much humour by many of our clients.

Best of luck with the continuing growth of GOLFSelect and we look forward to using your services again for all our future golf days

Well, our first AchieveGlobal Corporate Golf Day has been an outstanding success. Our clients have given us nothing but great feedback for the style and professionalism with which this event was carried out. Several have commented that it was the best event of this kind they had attended.

This, of course, simply would not have occurred without the wonderful support you provided.

From our first meeting we were very impressed with your attention
to all the factors surrounding the conducting of such an event. This continued throughout the planning process and culminated in a flawless day.

Every detail was meticulously covered from the access to and therefore choice of a top golf course, setting up of the website, invitations, the follow up of invitees, winners prizes and give away gifts. At every point you were always calmly one step ahead.

The working partnership has been very positive. With so many other priorities ourselves, it was reassuring to know that GOLFSelect had our event planning well in hand.

We are planning a second golf day this year and plan to make them an annual part of our client relationship calendar. We will certainly be continuing to work with GOLFSelect to manage these events.

Thank you for all the help and support you have given us.

Before I disappear on a few weeks annual leave, it would be very remiss of me not to drop you a quick note to thank you, Jenny and the two "Matts" for your tremendous advice, assistance and professionalism with our inaugural event.

Leonie and I have been overhwhelmed by the success of yesterday and will be on a very big "high" for some time.

It was universally acknowledged last night by many people that I spoke to, that the polish, attention to detail and technology that you guys bring to a corporate golf day is first class and without peer.

In the eyes of the sponsors and ourselves this makes the event something to remember, not just another day or invitation.

I'm sure you guys will be in touch with Leonie in the next few days/weeks tidying up some loose ends, but am very much looking forward to having our debrief on my return.

Thanks again, your team are great fun to work with and we'll be hoping to emulate and then surpass our collective feats next year.

Just a short note to let you know that we thought you did an excellent job at The SSY Sydney 2004 Golf day. The feedback we receive from our clients is always good but this year you involvement made a difference which was noticed.

From SSY point of view the difference it made to us was enormous, the time we saved by not having to organise the day made a big difference and we so enjoyed the day itself because we had so much time to spend with our clients instead of having to run around organising and sorting everything out.

We are very pleased we decided to have you on board this year and sincerely look forward to making you a permanent fixture for our annual golf days from now on.

Again many thanks.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for helping to organise our recent Victorian Golf Day. Having run our own events in the past, we know how time consuming this task can be when done in-house, and even then can result in an amateurish result. By engaging GOLFSelect, our own staff were left to concentrate on what they’re good at, with the knowledge that the organisation of our golf day was in good hands.

The involvement of GOLFSelect was a key part in ensuring the success of the event and the high level of professionalism that I witnessed both before, during and even after the day reaffirmed our decision to use your services. We certainly achieved our primary objective of creating a memorable event and experience for our clients.

Your use of technology added to the efficiency and memorability of the day and provided a long lasting record of the day for clients and staff to look back on.

I was particularly impressed with the smooth registration process and your use of computers in this regard is the first time I have seen this. It certainly avoided the long lines of people queuing to register at other events I have attended.

The on-course photos, post game large screen photo presentation and timely publishing of the after game website further enhanced the day. In particular we have received numerous positive comments from staff and clients about your involvement.

I thank you again for helping us to successfully set a benchmark for the running of CB Richard Ellis golf days. We are already looking forward to working with you on our 2005 event.

GOLFSelect have helped us to run our corporate golf days for over four years, and they have certainly contributed to making HIA Golf Days ‘second to none’. The expertise and efficiency provided by Gary and his team guarantees that all of our golf days are successful, both from a players and a sponsor’s perspective.

GOLFSelect book the best courses, take care of the player bookings, organise prizes, send out the pregame information, run a professional day and then follow up with further ways to improve for our next Golf Day.

GOLFSelect have certainly taken the load off HIA by running great Golf Days, and if you are thinking of running a corporate Golf Day, I would certainly recommend that you employ the expertise of GOLFSelect.

I would like to take this opportunity of behalf of LeasePlan to thank you and your team at GOLFSelect for the organisation of an outstanding golf day on April 3 at The National GC for LeasePlan's Victorian Golf Day.

Due to your organisation it was the most successful golf day we have had. Your professionalism, enthusiasm and streamlined processes took the hard work away from LeasePlan and ensured the day ran smoothly and with great enjoyment by all our guests.
Your website is a great tool—especially with all golfer's photos appearing on it only hours after they finish playing! This worked extremely well for all our participants.

Thank you for dealing with all the expected and unexpected changes with such ease and in such a professional and friendly manner—it is greatly appreciated.

We are looking forward to working with you on LeasePlan's 3 remaining golf days this year and again in the years to come after that—GOLFSelect have become a very valuable resource to LeasePlan.

Thank you for yesterday, what a great day and hopefully they raised some good money.

Your staff and service was top class and as an event manager the day ran very smoothly

Your team is probably the best I have seen in my years of running golf events around the world.

Thanks once again and look forward to seeing you next year.

Kind Regards
