Mix football, golf and horse racing as you take on the challenge of our FootGolf course at Wincanton Racecourse.
FootGolf is one of the hottest sports to hit the UK, and pretty much does exactly what it says on the tin.
Played on our golf course, you’ll use a size 5 football and the challenge is to get the ball in the FootGolf hole in the fewest number of kicks as possible.
The rules are exactly the same as golf, only you swap your golf club and golf balls, for your feet and a football.
We’re open to everybody and there’s no strict dress code, you certainly don’t need to be a PGA golfer or Premier League footballer to enjoy the fun.
Come and give it a go and see if you can be Wincanton’s next FootGolf star.
