A company holiday party should give people a chance to relax, talk, and enjoy time together outside the usual workday.
The challenge is choosing an activity that works for different personalities. Some coworkers love a little competition. Others would rather catch up over a drink. Many are happiest with a mix of both.
An indoor golf party gives your celebration an activity to gather around. At The Perfect Round in Conroe, simulator golf and craft cocktails come together in a setting that hosts corporate outings, team building, and private celebrations.
Use this checklist to organize the details before invitations go out.
Establish Your Guest Count
Start with a realistic attendance estimate. Will the invitation include employees only, spouses and partners, clients, or business associates?
Your total headcount affects the space you need, while the number of people who want to golf affects how you organize play.
Ask invitees whether they expect to participate in golf. A group of 20 enthusiastic players needs a different plan from 20 guests with only a handful interested in swinging a club.
Choose a Few Possible Dates
Have a preferred date and one or two alternatives ready when you inquire.
Also decide whether your celebration should happen during the workday, immediately after work, or later in the evening. Consider employee schedules and travel time, especially if people are coming from different offices.
If anyone attending will be under 21, address that before selecting a time. The Perfect Round’s evening age policy is 21 and older after 6 p.m.
Review our frequently asked questions and confirm any event-specific questions with the team.
Build a Complete Budget
Your planning budget should account for more than golf time. Getting the details in writing helps you communicate clearly with your team and the person approving the expense.
Ask about:
- Simulator time and the number of bays needed.
- Available event arrangements and what they include.
- Beverage service and how tabs will be handled.
- Current food options or approved food arrangements.
- Applicable taxes, service charges, and gratuities.
- Deposits, cancellation terms, and final headcount deadlines.
Preview the bar and cocktail menu as you consider the beverage portion of your event.
Keep Golf Welcoming
Your holiday celebration should feel comfortable for the coworker who plays every weekend and the person who has never held a club.
Ask the team which available games would suit your group. Short turns and simple goals can help more people participate without making the evening feel like a tournament.
If you want prizes, consider categories beyond the highest score:
- Best team spirit.
- Most enthusiastic beginner.
- Most memorable shot.
- Most encouraging teammate.
Make participation optional so guests can enjoy the gathering in their own way. Golf can help start conversations while leaving plenty of room for catching up.
Create a Loose Event Schedule
A little structure helps the party flow. Too much can make it feel like another meeting. Allow time for arrivals, playing, conversation, and any brief remarks you want to make.
For a two-hour celebration, a sample agenda might look like this:
Welcome
Arrivals, greetings, and getting the group organized.
Play & Connect
Casual golf, friendly challenges, and conversation.
Celebrate
Brief remarks, employee recognition, or a few fun prizes.
Wrap Up
More social time, final thank-yous, and goodbyes.
Send a Useful Invitation
Give guests the information they need to arrive feeling prepared. Include the venue address, start and end times, parking guidance supplied by the venue, dress suggestions, and RSVP deadline.
Tell guests that beginners are welcome. Explain whether food and drinks are included, and encourage everyone to plan their transportation home.
Before the event, send a short reminder with the confirmed details and a contact person for any last-minute questions.
