Due to the current Coronavirus Pandemic we have decided to Postpone the Golf challenge that we had planned for June, we will let you all know when we have arranged another date. Please keep following us for updates and thank you for your support.
As most of you know our next challenge is to play golf for 24 hours, without stopping, in order to raise funds and awareness for the mental health charity MIND. The challenge in itself is just as much mentally tiring as it is physically, trying to stay awake whilst chasing a little white ball round a field for 24hours is not a easy task, its bad enough on a normal round of golf! The quote:- “Be confused, it’s where you begin to learn new things. Be broken, it’s where you begin to heal. Be frustrated, it’s where you start to make more authentic decisions. Be sad, because if we are brave enough we can hear our heart’s wisdom through it. Be whatever you are right now. No more hiding. You are worthy, always.“ by S C Lourie is quite apt for our challenge. We have now set up a JustGiving page for donations to MIND, the link is https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/the-musketeers-golf If any golfers are interested in joining us or supporting us in other ways please do not hesitate to contact us.
We have confirmed the date for our challenge this year, which is to play Texas Scramble golf for 24hours, teeing off at about 6pm on Friday 26th June, finishing the next evening. The event is to raise funds for MIND, the mental health charity. Any golfers or golf suppliers who are interested in joining or supporting us please contact us. More details will be posted soon, on here and facebook etc so keep an eye out.
Quick update on our challenge for 2020, following our poll on facebook we have agreed to raise funds for MIND, the mental health charity. The challenge will be golf based and in June somewhen, full details to be finalised. If anyone is interested in getting involved or has some really good golf connections please get in touch.

The Musketeers would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year! A huge thank you to all that have supported us and followed us over the last year, thanks to you all we have raised the amazing sum of £7,033 for Cancer Research UK with our Kayak Challenge around the Isle of Wight. Keep an eye on the website and other social media for our next challenge, we have several ideas in mind!
It’s nearly the end of the month and I need to get some more donations, if you are able to donate please do. There is a proper slug growing now and I am nearly there on the 60km move for Movember. The link is http://www.mobro.co/leemarsh319
Since starting Movember 12 days ago Lee’s Mo is growing well! He has also done well in his “move for Movember” and has run just over 32km out of his target of 60km. Please try and donate if you can by following this link http://www.mobro.co/leemarsh319
Every November for the past 6 years Lee has supported Movember, much to the dislike of his wife! This year he is growing again starting tomorrow with a clean shaven face as in the rules, you can follow his progress on The Musketeers website https://themusketeers.co.uk/movember/
To increase awareness and also to raise more funds Lee will also be running 60km over the month, that’s 60 kilometres for the 60 men we lose to suicide each hour, every hour across the world!
Please try and support Lee in doing this, you can donate on his MoBro site on this link- https://mobro.co/leemarsh319
The website has been updated, new home page and updated Kayak page, check them out and follow us online through facebook, instagram and twitter!
We have also had another total up for the kayak challenge, all four kayaks are now sold and our total raised to date is £6,947, so close to the £7k mark! If you are able to help us get past this milestone it would be greatly appreciated, just click on the donate buttons to get to the Cancer Research UK giving page. The pic below is to say thanks and let everyone know who has sponsored us to date, it all helps!
