Finca Cortesin Golf. Solheim Cup joins Costa del Sol Zero Footprint project

The Solheim Cup aims to be more sustainable

To enhance its goal of being an environmentally friendly event, the Solheim Cup 2023, a women’s golf competition pitting Europe against the United States from September 18 to 24 at Finca Cortesin golf course, in Malaga, has adopted a new set of sustainability standards. Being hosted on the Costa del Sol, the Solheim Cup 2023 became involved with the “Costa del Sol Zero Footprint” initiative.

Costa del Sol is now the first tourist destination in the world to measure and compensate for the carbon footprint of every visitor, regardless of the nature of their journey. Your golf holidays in Costa del Sol will be, from now on, more sustainable than ever.

As Francisco Salado, president of both institutions, says: “The Costa del Sol is once again a pioneer and becomes a benchmark with a project that Turismo Costa del Sol has been working on for some time and which is another example of the clear commitment that both the Malaga Provincial Council and Turismo Costa del Sol make for the sustainability of this popular golf holiday destination”.

“As an added bonus, sustainability is one of the most telling metrics of a place’s overall appeal, popularity, and reputation. The Costa del Sol, however, is well aware that it must play in that league or risk being left behind. Because we believe that responsible tourist development must serve as the central tenet of the Costa del Sol’s future success”, he continues.

Tourists who visit the Costa del Sol, whether to play in the region’s stunning golf courses or not, can participate in the initiative by visiting the project website, entering the details of their trip, and getting the result of their carbon footprint in kilogrammes of CO2 and its equivalent in trees planted.

Throughout collaboration with another initiative, the “Málaga Viva”, over 340.000 trees have been planted in the province and land banks are being established to reforest and offset the carbon impact.

The third edition of the Aware Golf Strategy returns to Barceló Montecastillo Resort

The Martin Cummins Golf Performance Academy by Castellana Golf is bringing back its ‘Aware Golf Strategy’ courses to the Barceló Montecastillo Golf and Sport Resort, in the Costa de la Luz, near Cádiz.

On March 2, 3, and 4, participants in this innovative golf training course will have access to the golf course, the practice course, the training rooms, and even the hotel gym, as well as a unique approach to training and playing style that helps the amateur player decrease his or her handicap without changing his or her technique or swing.

Besides the actual instruction days, the training course also provides three green fees, unlimited balls at the driving range, hotel accommodations for two nights (breakfast and dinner included both nights), and transportation to and from the golf course.

“We are really glad to cooperate with the Martin Cummins Golf Performance Academy by offering these strategic courses throughout the year. The diversity of our facilities, with a golf course designed by Nicklaus, a top-class driving range, two short-game areas, a gym and numerous meeting rooms, allow us to host this type of event with a total guarantee of success”, says Guillermo Pérez Gutiérrez, Golf Manager of the Barceló Montecastillo Golf and Sport Resort.

Half an hour from the beach and just ten minutes from the airport, the newly refurbished Barceló Montecastillo Golf and Sport Resort is nestled between a wonderful natural environment and a castle dating back to the 19th century.

Nearly 40 private villas and more than 120 rooms are available at this resort. Each accommodation follows a new B-Room concept with a contemporary design, while yet maintaining the hotel’s signature classic and exquisite aesthetic.

As a Jack Nicklaus design from 1992, the Montecastillo golf course is a lengthy and challenging test of golfing skill.

3rd edition of the Circuit Interclubs Pairs Trophy in the Costa Blanca

The Interclubs Pairs Trophy, a popular circuit that in its 2nd edition already brought together 1,000 players, will return for a third year this February, according to the Association of Golf Courses of the Costa Blanca and the Valencian Community (ACGCBCV).

Continuing on the success of the prior two seasons, a total of 14 tournaments have been set up around the Costa Blanca for this third edition: 2 tests in Castellón, 5 in Valencia, and 7 in Alicante.

The circuit was created after the pandemic in an effort to encourage players to visit as many golf courses as possible in the entire Costa Blanca. There is no limit on the number of tests that can be played and only the top four scores out of all the tests taken are used to determine the final ranking.

The official poster of the circuit features a schedule of all 14 events, with the February 26 start at the Club de Golf Costa de Azahar highlighted. On March 5, the second tournament will be held at El Saler golf course.

For the third year in a row, all Valencian Community amateur golf records will be broken thanks to the prizes: the top-ranked pairs in each category will win a simultaneous annual subscription to all the courses on the circuit, which is worth over €30,000.

As an added bonus, four more couples in each category will each receive a membership to all participating golf courses for six, three, two, or one month, respectively, depending on the position reached. There will be a total of 20 subscriptions available through this circuit.

Costa Blanca is one of the most beautiful regions in Spain and has some of the best golf courses in the country. Book your golf holidays in Costa Blanca with Tee Times Golf Agency and enjoy a unique golf holiday experience.
