A Footgolf Tournament stag do brings together two sports your group already knows: golf and football. You'll head out onto a real 18-hole golf course, splitting into groups of four to kick footballs round each hole in as few shots as possible. Your event coordinator runs the show, throwing in extra challenges like Closest to the Pin and a Texas Scramble along the way. Choose match play or go full stag play with forfeits for the worst shots, then see who's crowned the winners at the end.
What’s Included
- 18 holes of Footgolf
- An event co-ordinator to make it more professionally run
- Extra challenges including longest drive, closest to the pin…
- Footballs, Scorecards included
- Prizes for winners
What Happens on a Footgolf Tournament Stag Do?
Footgolf combines golf and football across a full 18-hole course, with your coordinator splitting everyone into groups of four to take turns kicking the ball towards each green. The aim is simple: get the ball into the hole in as few kicks as possible, with the lowest-scoring team crowned the winners at the end of the round. Along the way you'll tackle a few extra challenges to mix things up, including a Closest to the Pin contest and a Texas Scramble, where the team plays their best shot from a single spot each time. Whether you're going for genuine golf skills or just trying to out-kick your mates, the format keeps everyone involved from the first hole to the last.
Why Footgolf Works for Stag Groups
This one works because it's competitive without taking itself too seriously. Match play keeps things straightforward if you want a proper contest, but choosing stag play adds forfeits for the worst shots, which is where most of the laughs come from. It's an easy activity for mixed-ability groups since kicking a football needs no real golf experience, so everyone from former footballers to total beginners can join in. If you fancy taking it further, there's nothing stopping the lads turning up in pringle jumpers and flat caps for some proper golfing fancy dress. With prizes up for grabs for both individuals and the winning team, there's always something to play for right to the final hole.

It's also available in Dublin for stag weekends heading across to Ireland. Courses are usually based just outside the city centre, often around a 10-minute drive from where you're staying, so it's worth sorting taxis or lifts once your venue's confirmed.
