We are pleased to announce that the 12th North America - Europe Golf Challenge in Japan, the Mercedes-Benz Japan Cup 2014, will be played on Friday, 10 October, at the same venue as in previous years, the Atsugi Kokusai Country Club in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The organizing task-force and Mercedes Benz Japan are working hard to make the event a memorable one for all participants. New this year is that although we play at the same club, we will now use half of the East Course (first 9 holes-same as before) and then half of the West Course (second 9 holes) as the East Course last nine 9 holes are under construction.

Registration
The registration for the event has now been opened. The participation fees are a 3,000 yen non-refundable registration fee and a 21,700 yen fee (paid to the club) for the play, caddie, lunch and party and a lot of great prizes, for a total of 24,700 yen.

Note that bus transportation is free for the 40 first to sign-up for it.

Sponsoring the event
If you want to promote your company through this event, and its web site, please sign up as a sponsor. Sponsors who sign up now will have the additional benefit of getting a full one year exposure on the web site (until we open the 2015 site). In addition to visibility on the web site, the sponsors will be included in printed material produced for the event, such as posters, information guide to players and the pocket guide, as well as at the prize ceremony and party after play.

Your contribution could be either money or goods/services. Sponsorship starts from 40,000 yen (100,000 yen in goods/services).

Charity
The organizing task-force has continued to work closely with the club to reduce costs, so all surplus from the event will be donated to charity along with the presently established charity fundraising activities.
