Story

Prostate Cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK, killing one man every 45 minutes in the UK. Thats the same time it takes to play three holes of golf.

Thats why Trevor, Mark, Gary & Dick, collectively known as the Billingbear Ball Bashers, are golfing the distance and taking on The Big Golf Race Marathon challenge, to keep men in the game for longer.

Now Golf might not seem that much of a challenge, but the Billingbear Ball Bashers have signed up to 4 rounds (72 holes) of golf in 1 day. That will work out an average of over 400 hits each. To fit this all in, the team starts at 06:00am Monday 5th July and will play until around 22:00. Doesn't seem so easy now does it!

So please give generously, the money raised by this challenge will help fund research into life-saving treatments for prostate cancer and provide practical support to men and their families.

You can follow the journey and updates on the day on the groups facebook page.
