Greek Maritime Golf Event Will Support “Together For Children”
Days are counting down to the top golf tournament for the shipping community “Greek Maritime Golf Event”, being held for the 5 th consecutive year at Costa Navarino from 8-9 June 2019 and raising the interest of the Greek and global shipping industry.

The 5th Greek Maritime Golf Event will reinforce the union “Mazi gia to Paidi” (“Together for Children”) in two ways: a) During the shotgun scramble, to be held on Saturday, June 8th, morning, players participating in the tournament can offer the amount they wish to support the good cause of the event. Specifically, golfers will be able to buy up to 3 extra efforts at the 10 hole of The Dunes Course. b) During this year’s award ceremony participants will have the opportunity to contribute directly the amount they wish at the specially designed area. The amount to be collected in total will be given to the union of non-profit NGOs “Mazi gia to Paidi” that works since 1996 and supports more than 30.000 children, on an annual basis, including more than 10.000 direct beneficiaries. Its main aim is to support children and young people in need, particularly those facing poverty, social exclusion, domestic violence, chronic diseases, mental or physical disabilities or the sickness or death of an immediate family member. 

Entries for this year's tournament continue with an undiminished pace as the participants already form their teams. Amateur golf enthusiasts will be able to compete on a team level by forming groups of four people and play golf in the two signature 18-hole courses, The Dunes Course and The Bay Course. The number of participants, all distinguished executives of the Greek shipping community, is set to 20 teams (80 players). 

The programme of the tournament will include some unique moments and surprises for each participant.
