Organise a Charity Golf Day for UKST
Play your round. Help save lives.
Take on our
36 or 72 hole
golf challenge
Ready to take on the ultimate endurance golf challenge? As part of our national charity golf fundraising campaign, we’re inviting golfers and clubs across the UK to organise or take part in a charity golf day by completing either 36 or 72 holes in a single day to raise vital funds and support our fight against sepsis, a life-threatening condition that claims over 48,000 lives in the UK every year.
Designed for players of all abilities, the challenge can be adapted to suit any club or golfer. Just choose a date and course that works for you, then take on the challenge solo, as a team, or as part of a club-organised event.
1. Choose your challenge
Register online and choose the challenge that’s right for you or your team:
36 hole golf challenge: A demanding – but achievable – test for most golfers.
72 hole golf challenge: The ultimate endurance test for golfers looking to push themselves further.

Decide how you’d like to take part:
- Individual: Challenge yourself to complete 36 or 72 holes in one day.
- Pair: Take on the challenge with a friend.
