The SCP Group celebrated a significant milestone at its annual Best Scaffolding Golfer of the Year Championship, fondly known as ‘The Scaff Open’, held at The Astbury Golf Resort.

This year’s event attracted a record number of participants, with over 100 scaffolding industry professionals gathering for a day of competitive golf and camaraderie.

The highlight of the event was the 18-hole Stableford competition, where industry experts vied for the coveted title of SCP Group’s Best Scaffolding Golfer of the Year and the prestigious claret jug.

The challenging course at The Astbury Golf Resort provided the perfect backdrop for the day’s events, with scaffolders showcasing their skills and passion for the sport.

In a remarkable show of support for the construction industry, the SCP Group partnered with The Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity for this year’s ‘Scaff Open’.

The partnership aimed to raise awareness about the support services available to scaffolding professionals and underline SCP Group’s commitment to making a positive impact within the sector. As part of this collaboration, the SCP Group made a generous donation to the charity, reflecting their dedication to the wellbeing of construction workers.

Following the intense competition on the greens, participants enjoyed a networking session, a BBQ, and an awards ceremony. The relaxed post-tournament activities allowed scaffolders to connect, share experiences, and celebrate their achievements in a friendly and supportive environment.

The SCP Group expressed heartfelt gratitude to all the scaffolders who attended and contributed to the event’s success. Special thanks were extended to the team at The Astbury Golf Resort for their exceptional hospitality and support, which ensured a memorable experience for everyone involved.

Overall, the 2024’ Scaff Open’ was a resounding success, reinforcing the importance of community and support within the scaffolding industry. The SCP Group looks forward to continuing this tradition and furthering its efforts to make a difference in the construction sector.
