WHAT IS TOPGOLF?
In short, it's a sports entertainment complex that features an inclusive, high-tech golf game that everyone can enjoy. Once you settle into your climate-controlled bay, a bay host will help you set up your game and create profiles for each player. The fun part is deciding which of the more than a dozen games to play first.
THE CHALLENGE
Topgolf is the perfect place to test your golf skills against your colleagues. Who has the best aim? Who has the hardest drive? Each ball has a tracker inside and instantly reports results. The scoreboard doesn't lie and the friendly competition doesn't have to end there.
Extend the challenge to another company's team and have your company's bay of six employees compete against their bay of six employees.
The challenge has been issued. Will you accept it?
Competitions may include longest drive, best accuracy, and a MENTOR NY favorite - Angry Birds.
