Sports PLC Expands Into Premium Golf Market with Forgan of St. Andrews

Sports PLC delivers premium brands at low factory direct prices from its online golf store, The Sports HQ.

Birmingham, United Kingdom, April 23, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The Sports HQ believes that golf, like all sports should be accessible to everyone - by manufacturing and purchasing direct in volume – they can supply an extensive range of golf equipment at up to 85% off full retail price.

Forgan was established in 1860 and quickly earned a reputation for quality and innovation, earning itself a royal endorsement within three years of opening. Today, Forgan Golf and Young Gun – the junior golf range from Forgan - is part of the Sports PLC portfolio and is sold exclusively from The Sports HQ website.

To make way for new ranges of golf clubs and accessories from Forgan and Young Gun, The Sports HQ has a limited supply of drivers, hybrids and putters that it is offering at up to 85% off recommended retail price.

The Forgan V2 420cc driver features a graphite fitted shaft with a traditional round design, over-sized head to improve accuracy and impact efficiency is now available for £39.99. Hybrid Rescue Woods can also be purchased from the Forgan K Series; originally designed to replace long irons, these hybrids feature a long profile club-head with wide sole to improve accuracy and playability. All K Series hybrids are fitted with regular flex graphite shafts and are available in men’s right-hand (15-19-22-25-28) and left-hand (19-22) from £19.99. Finally, the TCB range of putters set the bar in terms of quality and workmanship, with prices starting from £12.99 for the TCB X Putter to £24.99 for the ultra-stylish TCB XI, precision milled putter.

In addition to clubs, The Sports can offer the latest deluxe trolley bags from Forgan of St. Andrews in 6 colour variations and featuring a host of additional features more commonly found on trolley bags costing up to £200. For a limited time only, all orders for the Forgan deluxe trolley bag will receive a free stand-bag in your choice of four colours – worth £99.99.

The Sports HQ can also supply a range of complete golf club sets with bag from the number one junior golf brand, Young Gun - available for junior golfers of all ages – the Young Gun brand, unlike some the other ones available on the market, is manufactured to the same high standards found in all golf equipment from Forgan of St. Andrews. At £49.99 these junior sets include the following equipment (available in right and left-handed editions) - Young Gun Graphite Shafted Square 3 Wood, Stainless Steel Irons with Graphite Shafts - numbers 5-7-9, White Ball Putter, Deluxe colour coded stand bag and Wood cover.
