We cordially invite you to participate in our sixth Commonwealth Golf Day. The competition will take place in Tapiola Golf, a  18 holes inland links course built in 2013, located only 15 minutes from Helsinki City centre.

It will comprise a mix of competitors, sponsors and sponsors’ guests, Commonwealth personalities, Nordic-Baltic and Commonwealth Ambassadors, business executives and owner-managers, media and others enjoying a round of golf, learning to play or just having fun and enjoying great networking.

In addition to the Commonwealth Trophy awarded to the winning individual, prizes will include: Best Team, Special Competitions: Closest to Pin - "Malta", Longest Drive - "Australia", Hole in Two - "Trinidad and Tobago".

Non-golfers can take golf lessons and, along with tournament participants, enjoy an evening buffet dinner, outstanding networking opportunities, and various activities.

“Many thanks for inviting me to the Commonwealth Golf Day!

”The partnership with the British & Commonwealth Chamber of Commerce in Finland (B3CF)
has turned out to be beyond the expectation. Active and professional attitude with warm personal touch is quite unique approach and it is differentiating the B3CF.
The flexibility in organising but still firm dead-line management is a ground for success.
Still the most important factor is the smiles on the faces and that is guaranteed.”
