• SGU announce ground-breaking sponsorship deal
• Pike & Bambridge to become official vehicle partner
• Company represented by European Tour player Richie Ramsay

The Scottish Golf Union (SGU) has announced a ground-breaking sponsorship deal which is set to benefit golf clubs and golf club members across Scotland.

The deal with Pike & Bambridge, one of the country’s up and coming new car sales and leasing companies, to become the SGU‘s official vehicle partner, will provide sponsorship to amateur golf, supporting the governing body’s fleet of cars.

Pike & Bambridge has offices in Edinburgh and Aberdeen and is represented by brand ambassador and recent winner on the European Tour, Richie Ramsay.

“I have worked with Pike & Bambridge for two years now and they are a great company to deal with” – Richie Ramsay

As part of the agreement, the company will offer individual Scottish Golf Membership Card holders an exclusive service on new car sales and leasing from their complete range of brands and marques, with golf clubs receiving a commission every time one of their members acquires a new vehicle through Pike & Bambridge.

Ramsay received his new Pike & Bambridge sponsored car at last week’s Scottish Boys Championship at Dunbar, an event he played in several times during the early part of his amateur career, where the partnership was being launched.

Welcoming the new announcement, Ramsay said: “I have worked with Pike & Bambridge for two years now and they are a great company to deal with, offering fantastic customer service and knowledge of the car industry.

“The team are very passionate about golf so it’s no surprise to see them supporting the SGU with this new partnership.”

Nathan Pike, director of Pike & Bambridge, added: “We are delighted to extend our golf portfolio to the SGU and we welcome the opportunity to support golf clubs and their members through this new partnership. We operate across the whole of Scotland and offer a competitive package for any golfer looking to source a new car.”

Ross Duncan, SGU marketing & sponsorship manager, said: “The SGU is looking forward to teeing off this new sponsorship deal with Pike & Bambridge and we welcome their fantastic support.

“We are committed to adding value to being a member of a Scottish golf club and I’m sure many golfers will see this as a great option for their next car.”
