The main purpose of the event is to bring together people from the plumbing industry to network over a game of golf. Industry players— including plumbers, company directors, suppliers, manufacturers, and wholesalers— gathered at the Kyalami Country Club, not only to enjoy a game of golf but also to network with their clients.
According to IOPSA’ s technical director, Steve Brown, the golf day is good fun and a way to get everybody together, including manufacturers and plumbers.“ It’ s just a day we can all get together and enjoy chasing a little white, green, or pink ball,” Brown said. He also added that the golf day was a networking opportunity where everybody from the industry could meet and chat in an informal setting. Most of the people who attended the golf day echoed Brown’ s views of the event being an enabler to interacting with old acquaintances in the industry.
