Hosted by the Professional FootGolf Tour and title-sponsored by Nam A Bank, this premier event will feature some of the world’s best FootGolfers competing in a thrilling 54-hole strokeplay tournament. With a minimum prize purse of $10,000 USD, the event promises fierce competition and global recognition for the sport.
FootGolf, a dynamic combination of golf and football, has rapidly gained popularity around the world, and the Professional FootGolf Tour (PFT) has been a key player in driving its international expansion. The PFT’s previous event in January attracted 150 players from 27 countries, highlighting the sport’s growing global presence.
In addition to the main tournament, an 18-hole event exclusively for local players will provide the unique opportunity to try FootGolf for the first time. This event aims to build a foundation for the creation of a FootGolf federation in Vietnam, while also giving local players access to the sport and encouraging participation in future events.
“The Nam A Bank Vietnam Open will not only showcase the sport of FootGolf to a new audience but also foster connections between the international and local communities,” said Steve Crane, Chief Executive Officer of the Professional FootGolf Tour. “We’re grateful for the incredible support of the Royal Long An Golf and Villas, which has been instrumental in bringing this event to life. We also look forward to introducing players to the beauty and culture of Vietnam, with exciting excursions planned alongside the competition.”
A highlight of the event will be a football match between the international FootGolfers and the Nam A Bank football team, offering a fun and interactive experience for everyone involved.
The Professional FootGolf Tour’s growing influence is underscored by its 2024 achievement of over 73 million views across its social media platforms. This global visibility creates significant opportunities for businesses to get involved, with sponsorship and partnership packages available for those looking to capitalize on the event’s exposure.
The Nam A Bank Vietnam Open promises to be a landmark event, and we encourage local businesses and sponsors to get involved and take advantage of this unique chance to connect with a worldwide audience.
