The world's only short format outdoor golf league is coming to England

You may not have heard of Blitz Golf, which is the world’s only short-format outdoor golf league, but that will soon change as it makes its debut in the UK later this year.

Bringing together professional golfers, sports stars, celebrities and influencers, a four-event series will be staged across Leeds, the West Midlands, London and Lincoln. The launch marks the next step in the league’s global expansion. 

Established in 2018, Blitz Golf arrives in England after a successful Australian summer, where more than 10,000 spectators attended four events. Across its debut season, they delivered four of the largest attended events in Australian golf. 

This is a must see for casual fans, transforming a sport once seen as reserved for the elite, into an accessible, high-energy spectacle.  

Blitz Golf’s Australia Series delivered a star-studded field, with cricket stars Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell and D’Arcy Short going head-to-head with leading professionals from the DP World Tour, Asian Tour and LET, alongside celebrities and high-profile social media personalities. 

Often compared to the fast-paced innovation seen in leagues such as T-20, Blitz Golf condenses traditional tournament play into a three-hour knockout competition. The format features: 

• Progressive elimination rounds 
• Multiple cuts 
• Sudden-death shootouts 
• A purpose-built Stadium Hole for finals-style atmosphere 

Beyond a tournament, each England Series stop will deliver a festival atmosphere including live music and DJs, Interactive fan zones and premium hospitality experiences.

Over three weeks, UK audiences will experience Blitz Golf’s three-hour, 10-hole knockout format as a series of high-energy twilight events at the following venues: 

• Leeds Golf Centre, Leeds - 14 June 2026 (3pm - 6pm) 
• Gaudet Luce Golf Club, West Midlands - 21 June 2026 (3pm - 6pm) 
• Bush Hill Park Golf Club, London - 26 June 2026 (6pm - 9pm) 
• Lincoln Golf Club, Lincoln - 28 June 2026 (3pm - 6pm) 

Blitz Golf CEO Simon Zybek said: "England is one of golf’s spiritual homes, so bringing Blitz here is a landmark moment for our Global Series. We’re not replacing traditional golf, we’re complementing it with a high-stakes, accessible format built for today’s fans."
