WHAT a great event the Leasing Broker Federation Golf Tournament 2017 turned out to be – and that comes from me, who wasn’t playing!

The golf event, supported by Europcar, was played out on the 18-hole Duke’s course at the fabulous Woburn championship course in Bedfordshire.

The eventual winners were the Arval team of Matt Dawson (Arval) and Alex Andrews (Planet Leasing).

Here are some pictures from the day, including all 14 teams.

A bit of the action

Just to prove you weren’t all standing around in groups of four, here’s some of the athleticism on display at the Woburn course.

And finally, the winners

Alex Andrews  of Planet Leasing decides not to return the trophy to the Federation’s Nick Ratcliffe; and there looks little chance Matt Dawson of Arval (on the right) will get to share the trophy either!
