A Hamptworth Legends Pro-Am featuring players from the European Tour will top the bill when the club on the edge of the New Forest celebrate their first ten years.

The Hamptworth Legends Pro-Am will be the feature event in a Festival of Golf week taking place at the club, based in Landford, next July.

Other highlights of Hamptworth's celebration year will include a Founder's Salver on May 1, a Masters Tournament for all the year's competition winners the following day and a Stableford competition on spring Bank Holiday Monday.

The Hamptworth Open tournament is to be re-instated at the end of May as an event aimed at the professional and single-figure-handicap golfer.

Club spokesman Phil Stevens said: "The past ten years have seen Hamptworth go through many changes. The facilities are a far cry from the initial days when there was just a temporary building.

"As well as the competitions and tournaments planned for next year, we are hoping to make a number of significant improvements to the facilities at Hamptworth. We want to make 2004 an anniversary to remember."
