Ready for a fair tee-off
The eighth edition of OER
CEO Golf, the most awaited corporate event in the country,
is happening on January 12, 2012, at the Muscat Hills Golf
and Country Club

It’s that time of the year, when you need to carry your
networking skills along with your glove and golf club. And
this will happen on January 12 at the OER CEO Golf 2012, the
much sought after business-cum-leisure premium networking
event, which is brought to you by Oman Economic Review, the
Sultanate’s number one business magazine.
The event offers revitalisation for Oman’s corporate heavy
weights, giving them an opportunity to network and compete
on the greens. The event will host the top echelons of
corporate Oman at the country’s most exciting greens of
Muscat Hills Golf & Country Club.
OER CEO Golf has become the biggest and most memorable event
in Oman’s corporate calendar with golfers and golfers to be
enthusiasts taking part in this not-to-be-missed
action-packed day. There are few events that can boast of
such variety and all-round entertainment. High profile
business leaders, top CEOs and managers will network over a
game of 18-hole golf. While golfers vie to win, beginners
get an expert initiation to the game and participate in a
competition for winning the crowning glory – a Rolex watch.
OER CEO Golf 2012 is being presented by Nawras Business
Solutions while the associate presenter is INFINITI. The
official timekeeper of the event is ROLEX from Khimji’s
Watches. Samsung is the prize partner. Publicity partners
are Times of Oman and Al Shabiba while media sponsors
include Hi and Al Youm Al Sab’e. The category partners of
the event are AXA; Oman Printers & Stationers; OUA; Infoline;
Aggreko; and Travel City Travel Point.
Exciting day
It’s going to be non-stop entertainment the whole day with
the Golf Day beginning at 7.00am and ending at 2.00pm while
the evening entertainment function will be held between
6.30pm to 10.30pm. The most exhilarating time for Golfers at
the OER CEO 2012 will begin when they compete with their
fellow golfers for the thrilling new format known as the
18-hole Texas Scramble golf.
Generally, the Scramble is one of the primary forms of
tournament play for golf associations, charity events and
the like. A scramble is usually played with 4-person teams,
but 2-person scrambles are popular, too. In a scramble, each
player tees off on each hole. The best of the tee shots is
selected and all players play their second shots from that
spot. The best of the second shots is determined, then all
play their third shots from that spot, and so on until the
ball is holed. Trick-shot specialist Michael Scholz will be
on hand to display his magical skills with the ball and the
swing.
Apart from the high powered business networking while
swinging the golf club, an elegant red carpet evening has
been arranged complete with world-class entertainment,
socialising, fine dining, a glittering awards ceremony and
loads of exciting entertainment and prize giving. The
highlight of the evening’s entertainment will be Daniela
Maxova, renowned international illusionist.
For the golfers to be, a special programme has been arranged
apart from the golf clinic. Leadership consultant, John
Mitchell, will deliver a talk on ‘Driving Change from the
fairway to the boardroom’.
