GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

ARTHUR YEO JUSTIN STRACHANTopic Lessons from the China Golf Boom

Topic Critical Golf Club Management Issues

Founder and board member of the China Golf Managers Association

Former CEO of Asian PGA Tour COO of the World Sport Group Golf and Owner of Absolute Golf Services

From builder to Golf project manager to one of the best Golf Managers in China to then Developer and Golf Consultant

Justin delivers the message on the critical issues that determine success and profitability for Golf Clubs

Arthur has seen it all the good and the bad and will now be in India to share secrets of success in the golf industry

About IGE 2015 and the Indian Golf IndustryOn February 2015 with a view to unlock the economic and employment potential through development of new golf courses and promotion of golf travel and tourism experts from different sectors came together under the umbrella of Indian Golf Industry Association (IGIA) at the curtain raiser for fourth Annual India Golf Expo at Constitution Club of India

Speaking on the occasion Aakash Ohri Director DLF and President IGIA said ldquoGolf industry with its multifarious interests is aligning itself with the economic agenda of the Government Mega investments in Golf real estate are underway or are lined up which will provide a springboard for several sectors of economyrdquo

ldquoThe centre of economic gravity is shifting towards Asia India is poised to emerge as a major growth driver for world economy with inflow of large number of expatriates a trend that is already visible States and destinations seeking to attract large scale investments from European American Japanese and Korean companies and also into real estate and tourism can see a huge advantage if they offer golf which is a favourite pastime of expatriate executivesrdquo said Getamber Anand President elect CREDAI

Experts also quoted Prime Minister Narendra Modi who recently stated ldquoWhen my administration wanted the Japanese investment in Gujarat they were told that the Japanese wonrsquot come without a golf course So the government decided to create a golf courserdquo

Around 20 smaller golf projects are already underway in India with total investments between Rs 600-1000 crore Another 20 large projects which are likely to be created in the next five years will see an investments of Rs 5000-10000 crore into golf projects as a standard 200 to 300 acre golf course entails an investment ranging between Rs 200-500 crore depending on the location and size

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge

Expo to take elite game to commonsSharad Kohli TNN | Mar 25 2015 0333AM IST

GURGAON In the last 25 years both Chandigarh and Delhi have been called the cradle ofIndian golf Today Gurgaon can rightly claim to hold that title in terms of the number of golfcourses the city boasts and the young talent that is emerging from here

Many seeking to enter the world of golf get deterred by the cost or intimidated by the gamesperceived elitist image But thats not necessarily true in 2015 and change has been afoot for adecade now

The India Golf Expo to be held at DLF5 Club on April 15 and 16 will be hoping to ease golfsaccessibility to the common man

The Expo is ideal for those who would like to discover more about golf whether he or she is aneager golfer (but still getting to grips with the game) has ambitions of becoming a coach or coursesuperintendent or course architect (among other golfshyrelated vocations) or are tempted by a lifespent amidst verdant fairways and greens

There are at the last count 24 golf facilities in Delhi and the NCR with 10 of them in and aroundGurgaon making the Millennium City a golfing hub For every DLF Golf amp Country Club (aprivate club) theres a Golden Greens and a Classic Golf Resort (payshytoshyplay facilities) There areeven golf courses run by the Army and the BSF designed as part of a township (IMT Manesar) ormanaged by a company (TERI)

Aakash Ohri executive director of DLF and president Indian Golf Industry Association (underwhose aegis the Expo is being organised) said the aim is to create a knowledge bank whichanyone can benefit from Its not just about learning the game stressed Ohri

It will be for people who are seeking technical advice who want to find out about the bestmanagement practices to grow grass or maybe for the developer who would like to know aboutthe best sustainable practices

Indias top coaches will be at the Expo and so will Michael Hebron and Donato Di Ponzianoinstructors of international repute So there will be a few brains to pick for the young and oldwhove been dreaming of swinging away If golf is a game thats always intrigued you a visit to theIndia Golf Expo will help brush up your knowledge
