DANCE VIDEO SOLHEIM CUP

https://youtu.be/cSNAMrthKKMDear Members

As the Guadalmina Ambassador for the Solheim Cup this is an exciting week in our calendar for two reasons: 

 

First: attached to this publication is the Dance Video that we entered for the competition that the Solheim Cup event organisers are running.  We are extremely proud of this video and we hope that you enjoy it and feel as proud of our wonderful club as we did when we saw the final version.  I want to thank our wonderful dancers who made this possible and supported this project with such enthusiasm and commitment. We had lots of fun doing it.  This video would not have been made possible without Minoo who put so many hours into it to get it ‘just right’ and he certainly achieved something special.  Thanks also to all the staff from the course, caddy masters and restaurant that got involved. A big thank you to all the members who attended the ‘wave’ at the pool, the Captain Roger for getting all his guys out, the professionals in the school and all the children who got involved, our President Manuel and all the board members and administration staff.  A big thank you to Ignacio, Pepe, Vice Captain Leona and the dance committee for all their help and support.  We wish the video could be longer as there is so much great footage but 60 seconds was the permitted limit and I think it captures the essence of our special club. 

 

Second: this is the week that the Solheim Cup Team Europe takes on the United States in Toledo, Ohio from the 4th to the 6th of September.  As Ambassadors we are tasked with promoting ladies golf and spreading the word that ladies golf worldwide has moved up a notch.  It is getting more TV coverage and many golfers, both male and female, are enjoying the coverage of ladies’ professional golf events.  This week is no exception and I ask you to view part, or indeed the entire Solheim cup coverage.   Remember it will be on our doorstep in Finca Cortesin in September 2023 and we will all be a part of it.  We want to showcase to the world our enthusiasm for this event and our love of golf in Spain.  This is a real opportunity to promote our Club, the Costa del Sol and increase the profile of what Andalucía has to offer.  So ‘Lets go girls’ and ‘Lets go guys’ too. 

 

Good Luck from Guadalmina to the team in Ohio. Bring home the Solheim Cup girl

Chusiña was always smiling and friendly to everyone she met. 

She enjoyed getting together with friends and loved to entertain them with a song.

Colective dance contest JERUSALEMA to promote Solheim Cup 2023

Dear all,

As mentioned in the latest web publication from Rosaleen Cunningham, our Solheim Cup Ambassador, we would like to invite you all to participate in the Jerusalema dance competition organised by the Solheim Cup event managers as part of the program to promote the Solheim Cup 2023.  The music version we will use is the original “JERUSALEMA by Master KG”

 

 

What is the idea:

To get as many ladies and men as possible to attend practice sessions so that we can make a videoclip maximum 60 seconds in which we dance and promote our beautiful International Guadalmina Golf Club and the courses.  All the dancers from the winning club will get a greenfee to play Finca Cortesin the Solheim Cup Course for 2023.  We will be competing against all the clubs in Spain who also have an Ambassador, approximately 100.

 

 

Who can join:

All Guadalmina Members and Staff who want to do the dance.   Also, for those who do not want to do the dance but want to be part of the fun, there will be a grand finale around the swimming pool where everyone will be holding a golf club and we will do something similar to a ‘Mexican Wave’ and video it using a drone.

 

 

Dates for training and actual video:

9:10 – 9:40am at the P&P behind hole 4 – Wednesday Mornings June 16th, 23rd, 30th, and July 7th

7:45 – 8:15pm at the Driving Range – Friday Evenings June 18th, 25th, July 2nd,and July 9th.

The dance leaders/trainers will be Maria Torres and Anne Langgard on Wednesday mornings and Carmen Ortega and Leona Poelstra Friday evenings.

A final Practice with all dancers will be organised in the week of July 12th – dates and times to be announced.

Tentative date to video the Final Dance and the ‘Mexican Wave’ is Saturday July 17th.

The basic steps need to be learned at home before the first training sessions - attached is an easy instruction video which you can use to learn the steps. 

Dancers must committ to a minimum of 2 and preferably 3 training sessions. 

 

 

What will all dancers and everyone in the final line up wear for the Video?

Ladies – Coral top and white skirt, shorts or pants with a coral/white flower in their hair.  The flower will be provided by the organising committee.

Men – Navy shorts or pants and white shirt.

 

 

Where do I register?

Please register at the caddymaster if you are going to do the dance and you can put your name on the list for the Morning Training session, the Evening Training or on both. 

Important !

Please find attached the document that was received from the Solheim Cup Organisers with the rules of the competition. Please give extra attention to point 2 in this document concerning consent to the broadcasting of the video!

We all need to stay safe and therefore the Coronovirus protocol needs to be respected at all times.

 

 

Finally

Although the final video is only 60 seconds there will be some effort required to make it happen, but there will be lots of fun, laughter and excercise in the process.  We are looking forward to getting it started and showing the other clubs what the Guadalmina Women and Men can do.  Please register and join in the fun.

Lets all go and swing it out…

Committee Members: Rosaleen Cunningham, Leona Poelstra, Maria Torres, Anne O’Keefe, Carmen Ortega, Anne Langard.

News about Solheim Cup 2023

 

The Solheim Cup is the biggest international competition in women’s golf and one of the most important events in women’s sport around the world.  

 

This biennial tournament is contested by teams representing Europe and the United States.

 

For the first time ever, Spain will host the Solheim Cup in 2023.

 

Finca Cortesín (Costa del Sol, Andalusia) will hold the event that will take place from September 18-24.

 

Up to now, seven Spanish golfers have played in the European team. Azahara Muñoz (a Costa del Sol golfer) has been a stalwart on the European side from 2011 on.

 

Record crowds of more than 90,000 turned out to watch the 2019 Solheim Cup at Gleneagles.

 

The Solheim Cup is an ideal platform to present Andalucía and the Costa del Sol as a prime tourism destination.
