The “Eco Ball” exchange event at Dongbu Construction / Korea Land Trust Championship Gallery Plaza is popular.
On the 13th, the Korea Women’s Professional Golf (KLPGA) Tour Dongbu Construction and Korea Land Trust Championship (total prize money of 1 billion wins) started at Iksan CC located in Iksan, Jeollabuk-do. The Dongbu Construction / Korea Land Trust Championship, which welcomes the gallery after two years, has prepared a series of entertainment for fans under the concept of “WELCOME”. In particular, the ‘ecological machine’ installed in the Gallery Plaza caught the gallery’s attention.
This is a golf ball resource circulation project with the voluntary participation of golfers: if you put an old ball in the “green machine”, you can receive a new “green ball”.
“Ecoball” is not a recycled golf ball that is simply washed and painted like the existing lost ball or repainted ball, but a completely new golf ball made from the core by separating the old golf balls. The “far5 Eco Ball” held this time is an internationally recognized USGA and R&A certified two piece golf ball.
Many galleries who visited the venue expressed their satisfaction by exchanging old golf balls for new ones using environmentally friendly machines. The gallery, who visited the Eco Ball booth, said: “I brought a golf ball that has been used for about 3-4 months and replaced it with a new one” and “It’s nice to be able to exchange an old ball. with a new one for free. “
The eco-friendly machine has also been installed in the tee box on the 10th hole so that players can also experience it.
Additionally, galleries that had collected garbage in biodegradable plastic bags at Gallery Plaza were provided with various food and drink stands, long-term contests, and plastic cups for recycling. For galleries that have not been able to find the venue, the ‘Guess the Winner’ event will be held on the competition’s official website until the 16th.
