A good course for golf

Imagine if you had to live like a Cambodian, Angolan or Afghan...

Let´s help this imagination on it’s way - by initiating a fundraising where golf courses are turned into mine fields.

Let’s turn fundraising into an experience – based on empathy and not just sympathy.

The goal is to collect funds to clear an area the size of a golf course.

It can be done as a competition.

IF YOUR BALL LANDS IN A MINE FIELD - YOU GET ONE PENALTY STROKE!

It can be done as a collection.

HELP US CLEAR THE SIZE OF A GOLF COURSE FROM MINES. TAKE A MARKER TO THE CLUB HOUSE AND PAY 10 $. WHEN ALL THE MARKES ARE GONE WE HAVE ENOUGH FUNDS TO CLEAR THE VILLAGE HUINANG IN CAMBODIA FROM MINES.

Imagine a major tournament. It’s just about to start...

Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh and Ernie Els stand at tee-off. The audience are in their place. The media is there. Some covering the event live.

But the game can’t start! The course is a mine field - littered with mine markers. And not until all the markers are removed can the game begin (perhaps by

one donation equivalent to one marker removed).

Imagine the possibilities with other outdoor sports. Take football: ”Clear a field”.

A European youth team goes to Angola accompanied by a TV crew. The players then have to play a match with one leg tied, so as to play according to local conditions...

This could be a concept with as many possibilities as there are unexploded deviced.
