End of season, staying in shape!



The golf season in Norway has just ended.

Norgescup is a league organized by the Norwegian golf federation http://www.golfforbundet.no/. It mixes pros and amateurs on the same tournaments, resulting on the highest level of talent, quality and competition that Norway has to offer. Now Norgescup players have to find a way to keep the level the same or higher for next season.
The best would be to travel and play somewhere warmer. The most popular destinations are Spain, Portugal or Turkey. Economically, the best option is to practice at Fornebu Indoor Golf Center www.figc.no. It is the best and busiest training center for serious high performance players, or any other indoor golf center. Probably not the best way to practice for high level tournaments, but under the circumstances we do what we have to do to stay crisp and in shape. It is possibile to travel to Sweden and get some playing time on some golf courses that are "open" during the winter. Open for play when there is no snow on the golf courses.
