Glazerite hosts 16th PRO AM golf day

The Glazerite UK Group welcomed staff, customers, and suppliers to its annual Pro-Am golf day at Wellingborough Golf Club on Friday 8 July.

Now in its 16th year, the event is said to have become one of the most respected competitions in the industry calendar.

The 2022 Pro-Am tournament also coincided with the first anniversary of the Glazerite MBO, with the five-strong management team taking part on the day. They were joined by a number of industry faces, with players and sponsors also helping to raise more than £5,400 for We Mind & Kelly Matters, Glazerite’s nominated charity.

30 teams made up the event, with Glazerite customers travelling from as far afield as Falkirk in Scotland for the event. The winning team was made up of Steve Hancox, Mick Plummer & Robert Smith from Goliath Homeworld, who played alongside PGA Pro James Whatley, with Mick also triumphant in the ‘Nearest the Pin’ competition.

Rob Brearley, group managing director of Glazerite, said: “Once again, Wellingborough Golf Club hosted a brilliant day and evening for us, and we were blessed with some fantastic weather. It was great to be joined by longstanding customers and suppliers as well as some new faces. It’s such a well-respected and generously supported fixture in the calendar, and we’re looking forward to holding it again next year.”

Tim Taylor, commercial director, Veka UK Group, said: “It was a pleasure to play in the annual Glazerite golf day. As a key Veka customer, it was also a great opportunity to spend time with the Glazerite board and a number of their installer customers as well as raise money for such a great charity. A very enjoyable day all round!”
