Free tickets to Northern Ireland Open tournament at Galgorm Castle
The Northern Ireland Open will take place from 6th August to the 9th August, at the Galgorm Castle in Ballymena, County Antrim. It’s the 3rd consecutive year of the golf tournament, which marks the return of the European Challenge Tour to the province. The Northern Ireland Open (NI Open) is once again offering free tickets and the general public have only to register online to enter free.
The tournament has broken records for spectator attendance earlier and this time has been awarded a prime date on the calendar. The date change implies that there will be no clash of dates with regular tournaments of the European Tour event. It also paves the way for many tour regulars, who will strengthen the field. Michael Hoey has signed-up for the 3rd consecutive year as Tournament Ambassador. He is one of the household names on show and a 5-time European Tour winner.
The Director of Galgorm Castle Estates and also Tournament Director for NI Open, Gary Henry, said they were delighted with the new date and look forward to some of the best golf players of Europe and beyond. The spectators on the ground will also enjoy the dedicated and successful Food Festival again, he added. World-class golfers and major champions Rory McIlroy and Darren Clarke will also be in the field.
Free taster session to sing aloud and slim down with Rock Choir
A new year resolution to sing, or to slim down, is fine. But if you could combine both of them, would be real cool. If you join the Rock Choir for a 90-minute session and sing with them, you could burn 200 calories. That’s because they dance as well as sing.
Rock Choir runs regular weekly sessions in Chobham, Dorking, Epson, Weybridge and Esher. Sam Smith, leader of Rock Choir, said it is amazing to see how much members are benefited every week by the sessions. He has seen members’ confidence grow and they developing friendships, while also taking part in performances, he added.
Rock Choir of UK which has over 17,000 members, is spread over more than 300 communities and is actually the country’s largest contemporary choir. To try it out for your self just register for a free taster session with Rock Choir by visiting rockchoir.com/newyour15.
