After more than a year of anticipation, I can share with you the completion of the largest Five Iron Golf venue in Dubai to date.
The venue spans 32,038 square feet and houses 17 simulators powered by Trackman Golf.
Every simulator bay uses Five Iron Golf’s multi-angle camera system for swing analysis, and 6 bays will also house TruGolf Multisport technology to provide a multitude of sporting experiences.
Brand-new Callaway clubs will be available for customers to use, as well as free on-site valet parking.
What do you think about the boldness of this international expansion and the choice of location?
In just four years, the number of U.S. golf simulator participants soared by an impressive 73%, according to a National Golf Foundation survey: 6.2 million Americans.
Five Iron Golf‘s Fall 2024 League season kicks off on September 16 and runs through early November, providing teams of two with 8 weeks of guaranteed play on Trackman simulators.
Thousands of players will compete in 9-hole rounds with rotating formats, including Scramble, Best Ball, and Greensomes.
Tee times are available on Monday and Tuesday nights, catering to avid players, fierce competitors, and those looking for a post-work nine that meets happy hour.
Participants will face challenges from iconic courses such as Pinehurst No. 2, Royal Melbourne, and St. Andrews, ensuring a varied and engaging experience.
The competition is further enhanced with weekly drink specials and closest-to-the-pin contests, adding to the excitement and providing additional opportunities to win prizes and enjoy a weeknight outing.
