The 2023 Habs Golf tour arrived home on Friday 17 February after four enjoyable rounds of golf on some of the most challenging courses in Portugal’s Algarve region.

After a dawn departure from Luton airport on Sunday 12 February, 14 students started the week with a practice session later that day at the Dom Pedro Millenium complex, before taking on the Millenium course on the Monday. The following three days saw the group enjoy the fantastic facilities at the three Quinta do Lago courses; Laranjal, North and South. The sun finally put in an appearance on the final day at the South course. The tour party also enjoyed many of the varied dining opportunities at the Vilamoura marina, including a memorable Brazilian “Rodizio” restaurant on the Wednesday evening!

It is heartening to see so many students keen to improve and develop their golf, and with the majority of the participants being from Year 9, there should be a good chance of the trip going from strength to strength in the years to come.

Many thanks Mr Ward and Mr McIntosh for organising the tour. It was fantastic to hear that there were a number of comments from fellow hotel guests and hotel staff as to how the students were a credit to the school.
