Hey there golfers. The date has been set for the highlight of Taipei's annual social golfing calendar, the 2014 ECCT-ICRT International Charity Golf Cup. We are sending the word out early to give enough time to attract participants and sponsors. For those new to Taiwan, this popular annual event provides a perfect opportunity to show off your golfing skills and support a good cause at the same time.The European Chamber of Commerce Taiwan (ECCT) and International Community Radio Taipei (ICRT) have, for the 11th consecutive year, again teamed up to organize the annual International Charity Golf Cup. In 2014 we will be returning once again to the venue of the original Charity Golf Cup and will play on a Friday. Participants will be competing in teams of four, with each team representing a company, an organization or a country. There will be some fantastic prizes for best team score, closest to the pins and longest drives. As a maximum of 20 teams will be admitted to the tournament, members are invited to book places for their teams as soon as possible.

Proceeds of the tournament (from sponsors and a portion of players' fees) will be going to the Community Services Center (CSC), the non-profit foundation that offers counseling, information and support services to the entire international community in Taiwan. ICRT, a fixture of Taiwan's international community, will be running a series of promotions in the lead-up to - and on the day of - the event including live reports from the course. Immediately following the tournament, an awards ceremony lunch will be held at the club, including drinks, lunch and lots of prizes. Once again the tournament will be using a handicapping system to level the playing field for players, regardless of skill levels. Sign up your family, friends and colleagues for this great event.
