Important Maxitours news and Caldy start sheet!

Dear Maxitours players,

Less than 5 days to go before we are allowed back on the golf course where we can once again play this great game with friends in a safe and healthy environment. BRILLIANT.

Can everyone please double check entries and give me as much notice as possible if you are unable to make the rearranged dates. There have been a few changes to the schedule but all the Golf Clubs I deal with have shown their Class and been superb to deal with- Thank you very much.

The main change next month is Llangollen which has been cancelled due to travel restrictions. We are now visiting beautiful Hazel Grove a day earlier. Please let me know this week if your team can’t now play or if you wish to enter a team.

I look forward to seeing you all very soon indeed.

Yours in golf and friendship, Tim.

Dear Maxitours player,

I am delighted to announce that the Portugal trip is filling quickly!
This is the 5th Maxitours trip to the Algarve and we have always been blessed with great weather and quality golf courses- life is too short to stay at home in the January drizzle!
Please let me know if you would like to enter a team of 4.in the three round tournament. (I also have a two ball keen to go who require 2 more players!)

Range balls before play are provided to all competitors and the final day gala dinner is at the excellent Bovino steakhouse- transfers included.

Accommodation and superb breakfast is at the Magnolia hotel within walking distance ot the la quinta shopping complex.

There are also Great prizes and a tournament organiser (me!) to ensure things run smoothly. Transfers to and from the airport and golf courses are included.

We always have a lovely group of friendly golfers I am proud to spend a few special days alongside.
Please let me know if you would like to come!!!

Yours in golf and friendship,
Tim

The return of Maxitours!!

Dear Maxitours player,

I really hope you have all stayed safe and well and have coped with life without golf.

Things are looking as though we are getting back to some normality at long last and we can all meet up, play safely and enjoy each others company on some great golf courses.

Since the lockdown a couple of events have been added/shuffled/dates changed so please check your diaries and make any necessary alterations. (Changes have been highlighted below)

Next years Portugal trip details will also be released this week. Despite industry price rises Julie from Holidays for golfers has managed to negotiate the same incredible package for our Maxitours players at no extra cost from 2020. I always look forward to spending this week in Portugal with my players as we have such a lovely group. It is always a great trip.

Spaces will be limited and demand will be high. Please phone Julie at Holidays4Golfers 0161 428 0963 or myself to reserve you place.

Maxitours Events after lockdown. Caldy on 8th April is our first event back.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW AT LEAST 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE EVENT IF YOU CANT MAKE ANY FIXTURES – THANKS FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPERB INTEGRITY

Maxitours news!

Dear Maxitours players,

Another lockdown!

Brilliant.

Of course all my events are on hold until further notice – I will update you as soon as regulations change.

I hope and trust this will be the last lockdown. As we all get the vaccine and the weather warms up I feel confident we will be nearing normality by the Summer.

It will be a great day when we can all finally shake hands after a game of golf with our pals ! In the meantime let’s all stay safe for the last leg of this journey.

Many thanks for all the entries for next summer – a few of my events are already full.

I will update my website in the next few days showing entries.

Yours in golf and friendship,

Tim

The Xentum Maxitours Summer Schedule 2021

Dear Maxitours Golfer,

Many thanks for your continued support of Maxitours in this, the strangest of years. I really hope your golf has given you some much needed pleasure!

Thank you for your superb etiquette, quick pace of play and most importantly your integrity in playing in the true spirit of the game which is so important to the success of the tour. I have really got to know all my players and feel that I have a very special clientele . I always get remarks from Secretaries and Stewards on what a nice bunch of golfers you are.

I am delighted to announce the 2021 Maxitours schedule. Despite having to overcome some Covid issues I will always continue to try and provide my players with the best golf, on the best courses, at the best prices.

We are so fortunate to be able to play this terrific game.

Good luck this coming season.

Yours in Golf,
Tim.

Ps The Moorland Classic and Summer Classic are two day events but Order of Merit points and Prizes are awarded each day as lots of teams may only wish to play one of the events.
Pps The Welsh Classic – Teams must play both days- Priority will be given to last years teams- please let me know asap if you wish to play.

Maxitours at The Mere

Terrific Summer Schedule released next week!

Maxitours at The Mere

The Mere staff gave us a very warm welcome to Maxitours players today. This is a wonderful venue and everyone enjoyed themselves.

The course was incredibly dry considering yesterday’s drenching and it was great to see the ball rolling on the firm fairways.

Sam Leach was back playing with his usual very unsuccessful team. ‘I thought I would be able to shake them off during lockdown but they are all back’ He complained. He wasn’t surprised to finish 25th.

Scoring from most teams was excellent on the shortened course and Wilmslows’ Jim Caldwell(13) took the early lead playing alongside James Cash (1) Steve Barlow (6) and Bob Pickthall(18). They had 87 super points.

Earning their first win for over two years was Lee Tilleys’ (9) Saddleworth team. Dave Sarsfield (22) and Dave Rhodes(24) both had four point hauls and Ex Wigan Rugby league Chairman Norbury(24) also chipped in when required. Well played chaps great golf.

Many thanks for your amazing support this year I hope you all have a very safe Christmas and manage to spend some quality time with your family and friends.

Yours in golf and friendship.
Tim
