SGH Sporting Events

Sponsoring: Tourism Event Award

SGH Sporting Events was founded in Yorkshire in 2014 by business partners and sports obsessors Simon Hurd and Andrew Jennings. Through his experiences in golf, Simon, a former European Tour golfer of over a hundred events, saw a gap in the market for a sports events company that offered genuine value for money and integrity. Hence, the company ‘SGH Sporting Events’ was born.

Put simply, SGH Sports Events exists to bring your dream sports trip to life. From your initial consultation to the very last moments of your time with us, our mission is to make your dream experience easy, affordable and above all, truly special.
