Policy Impact Lab
Team building & strategy dayPolicy Impact Lab wanted to break their team out of the conference-room rut. Sixteen people, half of whom had never touched a golf club, flew in for a strategy day that looked nothing like their usual offsites. We started with a 45-minute coaching clinic on the driving range -- Donatas got everyone swinging within minutes. Then nine holes of Texas Scramble, a format where beginners contribute as much as experienced players. The real magic happened between shots: conversations that would never start in a meeting room. They finished with dinner on the clubhouse terrace, and their CEO told us three project ideas came directly from fairway conversations.
"We brought our team for a strategy day. Half of them had never held a club. By the 9th hole, everyone was talking -- not about policy, but about ideas. That's when the best work happens."
Aero.zip
Company retreatAero.zip is a distributed tech company. Their team hadn't met in person for months, and a Zoom happy hour wasn't going to cut it. They needed something that got people offline and talking face-to-face. We planned the whole thing: flights from four different cities, hotel bookings in Vilnius Old Town, airport transfers, 18 holes at Capitals, and a long dinner at a restaurant we trust in the city centre. The team spent two days together -- one on the course, one exploring Vilnius. Their CTO said it was the first company event where nobody checked Slack. That's a win.
"We flew our remote team to Lithuania for a company retreat. Everything was handled -- transfers, tee times, dinner. We just showed up and played."
Lobster Pack
Client entertainmentLinas runs Lobster Pack and uses golf as a deal-closing tool. He'd tried courses in Spain, Portugal, and the UK -- crowded, expensive, and everyone's doing the same thing. He wanted somewhere that felt exclusive without the exclusive price tag. We set up a half-day for six: a relaxed nine holes with no rush, followed by a private dining experience at the clubhouse. The course was practically empty. His clients noticed. Three separate business conversations happened on the fairway, and two of them turned into signed contracts within a fortnight. He's booked his next client day already.
"I've hosted clients on golf courses across Europe. Capitals is different -- private, quiet. Three meetings on the fairway, two turned into contracts."
-- Linas V., Lobster Pack
JSD Design
Annual offsiteJSD Design had the same problem every year: their annual offsite felt like an obligation, not an event. Twenty designers crammed into a hotel conference room, watching slides, drinking bad coffee. They wanted something people would actually remember. We organised a full tournament day -- 18 holes in teams of four, leaderboard updates at the turn, prizes for longest drive and closest to pin (and a booby prize for the most creative mis-hit). Half the group were beginners, so we paired them with more experienced players and ran a morning clinic. They've now made it an annual tradition. This year's date is already locked in.
"Our annual offsite used to be a conference room and bad coffee. Now it's 18 holes, fresh air, and conversations that actually move projects forward."
A note about this page
We're a young company. These are our early events, and we're proud of every one of them. As we grow, so will this page. We'd rather show you four honest stories than fill the page with fluff.
Why golf works
What these events have in common
Different companies, different goals. Same outcome: people talking, connecting, and getting things done outside the office.
Beginners welcome
Every event had first-timers. Our coaching clinic and team formats mean nobody sits on the sidelines. Golf's more fun when you're learning together.
Real conversations
Four hours on a golf course creates more genuine connection than a week of meetings. Something about walking, fresh air, and shared challenge breaks down barriers.
Zero hassle
Every one of these companies told us the same thing: they didn't have to think about logistics. We handled it all so they could focus on their people.
