Our Mission is involve all Footgolf passionates in the World
Footgolf is a sport in which players kick a football into a cup in as few shots as possible; the name is a portmanteau of Football and Golf, and the game combines the two sports, being more closely related to golf.
The game is played similarly to golf, with the exception that players use a soccer ball instead of a golf ball, and the ball is kicked rather than struck with a club, working toward a 50 cm-52 cm diameter by 28 cm deep "footgolf cup" usually located away from golf greens.

The player who finishes the course with the fewest shots wins. Footgolf is often played on golf courses, though it may also be played on specially built courses; the first shot has to be played from a tee box, and bunkers, trees, water and hills must be crossed or avoided in order to reach the hole.
The game is played with a regulation No. 5 soccer ball; as soccer balls cannot be propelled as far as golf balls in one shot, Footgolf is played on holes shorter than those used in golf.
For instance, one course in California features holes that average 157 yards; pars are typically five shots or fewer.
Compared to golf, Footgolf is quicker to play, more accessible, and does not require expensive equipment.
The official rules were established by the Federation for International FootGolf (FIFG) in 2013.
