<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Royal \u00a0Golf Club du Hainaut will be hosting two one-day golf<\/span>\u00a0tournaments on 11 August and 2 September this year in support of research to find a cure for Parkinson\u2019s disease. The two tournaments will build on the success of similar events held in recent years at the Mont Garni, Li\u00e8ge Gomz\u00e9 and Royal Hainaut\u00a0golf<\/span> clubs.\n\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n

Parkinson\u2019s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that is often characterized by tremors, muscle rigidity, and other movement difficulties, and mostly affects people over the age of 60. \u00a0There is currently no cure for this fast-growing condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

However, sport, and in particular<\/p>\n\n\n\ngolf<\/span>\n\n\n\n

, has been shown to be helpful in controlling the symptoms alongside medical treatments. Combining an active lifestyle with a social dimension, such as is offered by<\/p>\n\n\n\ngolf<\/span>\n\n\n\n

club membership, also helps Parkinson\u2019s patients to feel connected which is good for their mental and emotional wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\nThe funds raised at the two tournaments will be used by the Brussels-based Demoucelle Parkinson Charity to fund the most-promising research projects, selected by its\u2019 own experts and in partnership with the Michael J. Fox Foundation.\n\nOf the two tournaments, the one on August 11 tournament is open to members and guests. Interested golf<\/span>ers are asked to register\u00a0<\/span>via i-Golf <\/span><\/span><\/b>from July 12th<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/b>The one on September 2 is currently private.<\/span>\n\n<\/span><\/b>If you would like to\u00a0sponsor\u00a0<\/b>one or both\u00a0<\/span><\/b>tournaments, please contact Olivette Mikolajczak Goetghebuer at\u00a0<\/span>olivette.miko@skynet.be<\/a>\n\nIf you are interested in making a\u00a0donation<\/b> to Parkinson\u2019s research in conjunction with the tournaments (fiscally deductible above 40 euros), please do so through this webpage<\/a> mentioning \u201cGolf<\/span>\u201d in the \u2018Free communication\u2019 box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
