Dale Hayes Golf Events was started by legendary South African professional golfer Dale Hayes some 17 years ago. He has recently sold a significant stake in his company to PGA club professionals Joseph Phiri and Ivano Ficalbi, both of whom have been involved in the staging and management of golf events for some time.
Ivano Ficalbi will assume the role of managing director as from the 1st of March 2008, while Dale Hayes' role in the company will remain largely unchanged. He will continue to head up marketing and promotions as well as to host the more than 100 golf events that the company is involved in each year around Southern Africa. Sharon Bruyns will continue to act as a consultant, as well as to run various projects in association with the company.
"I am very excited by this new development," commented Hayes, adding: "Dale Hayes Golf Events has established itself as a leader in its field and, with the combined experience and knowledge of Joseph and Ivano, we are sure to see continued growth of the company within golf. We will be able to offer our new and existing clients more options with even better service, which is so important in the golf industry."
