Fabulous weather, immaculate greens, inspirational play and delicious après-golf nibbles made the perfect ingredients for another successful competition in the monthly Sala Super League, one of the Coast’s top golfing meets. And not only were participants and spectators treated to another great match, the event also raised over €2,000 for local charity DEBRA.

Saturday 13th September dawned bright and sunny with barely a hint of a breeze for September’s round of the Sala Super League. This month’s venue was the San Roque Old Course, a rare treat for participants as this Costa del Sol venue is usually reserved for members only.

Reputedly one of the finest golf clubs in Europe, San Roque Old Course ranks as a veteran as well as an icon on the Costa del Golf. Founded in 1990 and originally designed by Dave Thomas with bunker redesigns by golfing legend Seve Ballesteros, San Roque Old Course’s 18 holes enjoy stunning mountain and Mediterranean views.   

September’s Sala Super League match was the eighth in the series of ten programmed throughout this year. The contestants couldn’t have asked for better weather or greener course conditions and as a result, this month’s battle saw some very satisfying play. As usual, prizes were hotly contested. The winning team, A Weapon of Grass Destruction, scored 85 to take first place with four other teams just a stroke behind them and in the individual category, Mick Walsh played some inspirational golf to win the match. 

Afterwards, teams and players headed for La Sala by the Sea for some well-deserved drinks and canapés. With its privileged beachfront position, chill-out décor and refreshing pool, the beach club provided the perfect venue for post-match relaxation and award ceremony.

A total of 159 individual players and 29 teams are participating in the Sala Super League and vying for the fantastic top prize of a golf holiday in the Algarve, Portugal.

The next competition takes place on Sunday 19th October at La Reserva de Marbella golf course and will be followed by complimentary drinks and canapés at La Sala by the Sea. 

The exclusive year-long tournament, organized by Sala Group has been kindly sponsored by Stein Personal and Corporate Planners, Ecocarinvest, Currencies Direct and Sportwagen Porsche Marbella. Not only a great sporting and networking competition for local businesses, the Sala Super League is also a vehicle to support local charities including DEBRA.
