Topical event

It’s time for Vlerick Alumni’s 24th Golf Challenge and Clinic. And we’d love for you to come along – whether you can get a hole-in-one or not! Together with our main partner VDP – Your Corporate Finance – we’ll be teeing off at the Royal Ostend Golf Club on Saturday, 31 May 2025. Everyone’s welcome, including alumni, students and guests – you don’t even need to be a golfer to take part!

We think you’ll love the Royal Ostend Golf Club. It’s Belgium’s only links course – and its natural terrain, sandy soil and exposure to wind pose unique challenges to golfers. (Just don’t let that intimidate you if you’ve never held a golf club in your life.) Current Challenge cup holder Bob Fiers will be defending his title of Best Alumni Golfer of the Year.

We really hope you’ll kick off your golfing summer with us for a day of fun, food, drinks and networking in a stunning golf setting.
