3 Key Requirements for Successful Hole In One Contest Coverage

Posted by Amy Fanter

You’ve already gotten your golf tournament hole in one quote from us, so what’s next?  Here’s the 3 key requirements you need to meet in order for your hole in one contest coverage to be valid.

  • First, you’ll need to make payment prior to the date of your event!  Hole In One International accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express or check.  Checks mailed through the U.S. Post Office need to be postmarked at least one day prior to your event; we will not accept checks that are postmarked the day of your tournament or later.
  • Next, you must provide a witness (or witnesses, depending on your prize), over the age of 21 years of age, who is not participating in the tournament.  You will need  to adjust the number and kind of witnesses, depending on the value of the prize you’re insuring for, as we covered a few weeks back in this blog post on witness requirements.
  • Finally, the yardage must be measured from the actual hitting area on the tee box to the hole cut in on the green and cannot be lower than the yardage you put on your hole in one application.  (Remember: we only accept holes with a minimum yardage of 135!)

The Putting Contest: Another Fundraising Opportunity

Posted by Amy Fanter

Looking for another great contest to add to your charity golf event? It’s easy to run a fundraising putting contest before, during or after your event!

As with the golf shootout and hole in one contest, a putting contest represents another opportunity to sell additional sponsorships and raise more money. You can also collect additional donations from tournament participants to participate in your putting contest, particularly if it’s for major prize, such as a new car or $50,000!

Hole In One International insures both single putt (50 ft. or longer) and combination putt-putting contests (10 ft –> 30 ft –> 50+ ft).  Don’t want to leave your contestants empty-handed if they can’t successfully hole the first two putts of the combination putting contest?  Throw in a small prize such as a sleeve of golf balls and/or a t-shirt on behalf of your organization!

The Hole In One Contest

Posted by Amy Fanter

The Hole In One Contest
A hole in one contest is by far the most popular charity golf tournament contest.  Held on a par three, a hole in one contest rewards anyone making a hole-in-one with a prize. Hole in one prizes can be anything from big screen televisions or sets of clubs to new automobiles or a substantial cash prizes.

While some charity golf tournament organizers have local businesses donate prizes, if you want your event to stand out, insuring a spectacular, attention-grabbing prize with a hole in one insurance company, such as Hole In One International, has multiple benefits. Not only will the big prize – such as the chance to win $10,000, $100,000 or even $1,000,000, attract attention, you can raise additional money by selling a hole-in-one sponsorship package.

Hole In One International is happy to help you select the right hole-in-one package to suit your sponsor as well as your budget.

Shoot-Outs Make Great Golf Fundraisers

Posted by Amy Fanter

Running a shoot-out can be a very effective way to boost attendance and raise funds for your organization. Whether you add a $1,000,000 shoot out to your existing golf event or run one as a stand-alone event, a shoot-out is a fun way to attract attention and bring added excitement to your next event.

However, if you are worried about the risk of offering a million-dollar prize during your shoot-out, you should know that by working with an insured prize promotions company, you’ll be able to offer the million dollars worry-free.

That’s because if someone makes an ace during your event, the insurance company, not your organization, will pay for the prize. Continued

Thinking About Running A Putting Contest?

Posted by Amy Fanter

Have you or your golf event committee every considered running a putting contest but weren’t exactly sure where to start?  Hole In One International can help!

Used extensively by golf tournament organizers as well as corporate and special event sponsors, putting contests, featuring large insured prizes, can help you generate greater publicity, increase attendance, and add excitement to your next tournament or fundraising special event.

Depending on your budget, the amount of time to you have available, and the format of your event, you can select from either a single-putt putting contest or the three-putt combination putting contest. And, as is the case with hole in one insurance, the cost of your putting contest insurance coverage will vary based upon the length of the putt, the number of people who will be putting and the size of the prize you would like to insure.
