Golf Birthday Party Theme

Fun Ideas for a Golf Theme Birthday Party

Decorations
Cover tables with green Astroturf or tablecloths.  Scatter golf tees and balls in the center of the tables or place them in bowls with flags in the center.  

If you can't find golf themed tableware use white plates (golf balls) and black or yellow flatware.

Hang or use helium balloons in green, white, yellow and black. 

Use golf clubs and bags set around the party room to set the golf theme.  

Fun Ideas
Play a round of miniature golf at your local venue, or make a crazy golf course in your backyard.

Hire a high school golf team member to attend the party and give the guests pointers on their golf game.

Take guests to a driving range.  

Rent a golf cart for the day and let parents take the children on rides through the neighborhood.

Activities
Decorate golf visors using foam visors from a craft store and foam stickers letters and pompoms.

Decorate a picture frame using stickers, paint, letters.  Tip: Paint the frames green before the party.

Let the guests warm up by practicing on a putting mat.

Games
Golf Obstacle Course - set up a fun golf obstacle course in the backyard or park for the guests.  Break guests up into two teams (or time them individually) and give each team a plastic golf club.   Use practice or lightweight plastic golf balls and have each team - in relay style - go through the obstacle course.  You can use anything in your backyard to make the obstacle course - make them hit thier ball while going under (or over!) a trampoline, through a swingset,  around cones, hit their balls through tunnels (make with cylinder oatmeal containers). 

Golf Ball Relays - fun relays to do using a practice or plastic golf ball.  Set up in teams or time individually.  Set up cones or a marker at the other end of the yard and have teams go around the cone and hand off to the next player.
Carry ball on a wooden spoon - like the old egg relay.
Hit a ball zigzag style through a line of cones (or use cans painted orange).
Make a put into a hole on the other side of the yard.

Pin the ball on the green - Played like pin the tail on the donkey.  Use a large green poster board and draw a hole with a flag in the middle or to one side.  Cut white circles out of construction paper for the golf balls.  Number them and affix a small piece of double sided tape to the back.  Blindfold the party guests one by one and spin them around.  Then tell them to place their golf ball on the green closest to the hole.  Give a small prize to the winner.
