Following the success of last year’s inaugural Asian Amateur Championship in China, the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation (APGC) has retained brandRapport, to manage international media and PR services for the event.  brandRapport has also been tasked with developing a local promotional campaign to drive attendance at Asia’s leading amateur golf tournament, which this year will be held in Japan.
The 2010 Asian Amateur Championship will be played October 7-10 at Kasumigaseki Country Club on the outskirts of Tokyo.  Featuring the top amateur golfers from the 34 member nations of the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation (APGC), the tournament is supported by The R&A and the Masters.
Dan Parr, Associate Director at brandRapport, commented:  “The Asian Amateur Championship plays a pivotal role in the development of the game throughout Asia Pacific.  With the winner securing a start at the Masters and a spot in final qualifying for the Open Championship, this tournament is without doubt the most important amateur golf event in the region.  We’re looking forward to continuing a successful partnership and playing our part in further building the reputation of the Asian Amateur Championship.”
