Albatross Golf Club – Competitive Teams & Development Structure
Albatross Golf Club has built strong competitive teams within the Albatross Academy, regularly participating in all team competitions organized under the Czech Golf Federation.
However, our players don’t stop at team tournaments – they actively compete in individual events both in the Czech Republic and abroad, fighting for top positions and gaining valuable experience.
We are proud of our talented golfers and believe we provide them with the ideal conditions for further growth and success.
