Dear GCA,
I have been selected by the English Deaf Golf Team to take part in the World Deaf Golf Championships (WDGC) at Tsu Country Club in Japan this October. This will be my first World Deaf Golf Championship. There will be over 100 competitors taking part in this bi-annual event.
www.2012wdgcjapan.comI would appreciate if my fellow GCA'ers can sponsor me/support the English Deaf Golf Team and some of those proceeds will go to the Japanese Tsunami Fund to honour our hosts. Most of the deaf golfers taking part are in lowly paid jobs and are paying out of their pockets to make this amazing trip to Japan.

and also designed the new EDGA logo!
The venue Tsu Country Club - All I know it is designed by Masashi 'Jumbo' Ozaki and I would appreciate if anyone on GCA knows about this course or make suggestions and any help is appreciated so that we can play on other courses in Japan.
The World Deaf Golf Championships in 2014 is at Grand Traverse Resort in USA - gives me a perfect excuse to pop into Mr. Doak's office as well as Crystal Downs and Kingsley Club (and High Pointe if it is reborn)
Thanks in advance
Ben
