Curious non-golfers, did you know? As if getting the invite to a multi-day member guest tournament wasn't great enough, golfers form karma and gifting pacts with their friends to invite each other to their member-guest tournaments. They ceremonially open these tournaments with a bizarre but amazing gifting ritual: On arrival at the tournament, usually within sight of the first tee will be a check-in area teeming with extravagant gifts for the guests, often personalized or sized for the guest and presented with a gracious if studied nonchalance. "Oh yeah, did you pick up your engraved and tourney-stamped Opus tri-wedge pack gift bag out front? I told the gifting committee team you like the wedge flex, I hope that's okay." If you want to get into the golf grifting and gifting pact member guest game, you will need to acquire some golfing skills. We're talking about reps* education* and thoughtful practice*.

Finisher medal - yay or nay? The ongoing debate on the lips of event organizers. Too often you'll hear participants say that they aren't interested in a finisher medal. So, organizers listen and opt for replacements like beer glasses, plants or bracelets. Only to hear how sh#t the idea is as those very participants stroll off after the race - medal replacement item in hand. Others happily add their medal to their collection, seeing it as a badge of honour. Is it a debate that could ever be solved? Or are we forever torn between the medal vs no medal warriors. What do you think? Are you a collector or not?

Are you about to give up? Do you know Tiago Rech and his inspiring story of never giving up? The story of the fan who became the clubs most successful president. Rech first gained widespread attention in 2012 when a photograph of him went viral. The photo showed Rech as the lone fan in the stands, passionately supporting Santa Cruz during an away game against Gremio, one of Brazil's most successful teams. The image of a solitary fan in an empty stadium became symbolic of true fan loyalty and dedication. In 2019, Rech's commitment to Santa Cruz took an extraordinary turn. He was elected president of the club, a role that allowed him to directly influence its future. His election as president was a significant moment, demonstrating that his passion for the club went beyond mere support from the stands. As president, Rech faced numerous challenges, including financial difficulties and the need to improve the club's performance on the field. Despite these obstacles, he worked tirelessly to promote the club, attract sponsors, and engage with the community. His leadership was characterized by a hands-on approach and a deep connection with the club's supporters. In 2020, Santa Cruz won the State Championship and made it to the Brazilian Cup for the first time in 107 years. Keep going ... Keep doing ...

If more companies actually took steps to "grow the game" instead of just repeating the line over and over again, we would all be better for it.
