Absolutely not! All MGA events are open to players from all backgrounds regardless of religion, ethnicity or nationality. MGA events are held upon basic Islamic values hence there will be no alcohol or gambling involved, and prayer arrangements will be made.  We ask all our participants to respect these guidelines.

We welcome all participants with or without a handicap. To win the placed prizes, you must have an official WHS handicap.  If you don’t have an official handicap you can play your society playing handicap or get a WHS handicap (https://englandigolf.co.uk/ )for free and participate in the Social Golfer competition. If you don’t want to do that, participate just for fun. We verify handicaps of prize winners through our access to central handicap databases.

No. Each day will have its own respected winners. However, to be crowned the Race to Belek champion, the more events you participate in, the higher the chance of you being the winner. We anticipate most players will play all three events.

The top 24 players from The North will play the top 24 players from the South in the Liwaa Cup.

You must finish in the top 8 of your respected handicap division to qualify for the Liwaa Cup. The more you play, the better your chances are.

Yes! You can join as a single golfer – just change the quantity to 1 when you book, we will then pair you up before we draw tee times. We anticipate many single golfers participation in this competition.

Each event will have its own individual winners & runners up of the day in their respected handicap division. 

There may also be a nearest to the Pin and Longest drive prize on each day.

However, to be crowned the MGA Champion for your division, we will add your scores from all the golf days. The player with the highest combined, Stableford scores, will be crowned MGA champion.

You will be drawn with players who have a similar handicap to yours. This is to create a competitive environment but also a great chance to meet & network with players of similar ability and test yourself against others. 

If the stableford scores are tied the winner will be the one who has the highest score in the final round at The Forest of Arden. If the points are still the same we will do a countback from 18th hole of Forest of Arden. If the best score for the last nine holes does not separate out a winner, then the final six holes are used, and, if that still fails to provide a definitive outcome, the final three holes.

All events are taking place on a Friday. We aim to serve breakfast, hit the range and then tee off with a shotgun start. Once the round is finished we will prepare to pray Jummah and lunch will be served as well as prize giving ceremony. We can encourage you to take advantage of the exclusive MGA hotel discount so you can relax, network and unwind in your own time. A more detailed itinerary will be emailed once you have confirmed your booking.

There is no handicap limit in any of our competitions since we are inclusive of all golfing abilities and rely on the integrity of the handicap system to ensure a fair competition.  

No – all putts must be holed out.

All MGA events are run with Live scoring through your smartphone. You will have updated handicaps already created and scores will automatically be adjusted through our app. There will be a live leaderboard available throughout the event. No need for you to work out the score on each hole. Just enjoy the game. It’s hard enough as it is!

We are looking to plan a trip in Feb 2023. We are awaiting final details from our travel provider and will confirm shortly. There will also be a separate MGA Winter group organised to accompany our winners, with more details to follow.
