PLayed in the first two edition of the tournament. Have to say it was superbly organised in Category A golf courses, namely Templar Park and Sungai Long (which is not open to outsiders!!).

For RM350, it is worth it and I just checked the venue for Klang Valley is KL Golf and Country Club, looks like BMW Msia has gone one level up over Mercedes which held their tournament in Saujana!!

Well done

no white card can still play as long as you are owner of a bmw BUT you will not be officially scored and are therefore unable to qualify for the National and World Finals. ....

Non White Card member can play and qualify, provided the BMW you own is a local unit purchased via the official Dealers. IF its a grey car, then as per what Dzul mentioned.

AlBundy, does the white card AB gave us have expiry date? I think mine was lost already. I'd like to participate this time around.

Anybody joining this year?

I called up BMW Voice and they confirmed my white card expired (3 yrs only for new car). We can still participate under normal BMW ownership (RM350).

hhhmmmm.....

was thinking of just registering..... take the goody bags and head home without even going to the 1st tee-box..... heheheh

but, is the goody bag that good???

 

[ALBundy]

Yup gmeng is right, non White card members have to pay 100 bucks extra. You have to fax your car registration card together with the form to BMW.

Goodies will include some stuff from taylormade adidas. Even without the goodies to play in klgcc itself for that price is worth it

Seriously, AB, what did they give you last time when you joined? or do you have any idea what they are planning to give this time?

The first year they have a nice BMW Travelling bag (with rollers), plus they sent me a box with a sleeve of Titleist ProV1x balls plus some divot repair, tees. You also get a BMW golf T shirt.

Second year, they gave a boston bag (of which I am still using) with shirt, cap and a sleeve of Taylor Made TP black balls.

To me, the amount of $$ you pay to enter can't even cover the green fees at KLGCC. :rock:

Yes Herbert, you can. Just fax the car registration card together with your entrance form to BMW.

Sure. For those who can play well enough to enjoy the round and appreciate the course. Otherwise you'd be like that someone who doesnt see any difference between kota permai and seri selangor except its easier to make nice big pancakes of divots... kena kutuk sial...
