Who We Are

The Billingbear Ball Bashers are a like-minded mixed-standard group of guys who enjoy a regular Saturday morning Tee Time at Billingbear Park, with the lucky retirees managing to sneak in a Wednesday too. 

​

We believe that a bad day on the course can still a great day for a good cause, so we started raising money back in 2021, when four of us each took on 72 holes in a single day for Prostate Cancer UK.

​

Since then, we've held an annual golf day, raising money for a chosen charity each year. Together with our fellow golfers, we have raised over £26,000 for Prostate Cancer UK, Crohns & Colitis UK, Dementia UK, PSPA, The RockinR and the Ollie Young Foundation

Over £26,000 raised for charity since 2021.

The 2027 Cause will be announced shortly

In 2026 we were proud to support the Ollie Young Foundation and Helen & Douglas House Hospice.

 

These incredible organizations provide vital care, palliative support, and research funding to families facing the unthinkable.  The Foundation was launched in memory of Ollie, a brave little boy from Wokingham who lost his fight against an incurable brain tumour the day before his sixth birthday, just twelve weeks after his first symptoms. There was no treatment, no cure. Ollie spent his final weeks at Helen & Douglas House, where he and his family were cared for so they could share precious time together, until he closed his eyes for the last time on 26 February 2012.  We worked with Sarah, Ollie's mum, to raise funds for specific items the Hospice needs, and to do it in Ollie's name.  Thanks to the very generous support from the golfers and the generosity of all our sponsors who gave us prizes for the raffles and auction, we raised a total raised of £6950.  This has exceeded all our expectations and we are so grateful.  This sum was used to purchase a specialised ‘Rainbow bed’ for the patient and ‘bed chairs’ for parents to be able to stay next to their child in the Hospice.
