SHDA Golf Cup 2026 Swings Into Its 4th Edition with Sportsmanship and Collaboration Driving Developments Forward

Philippines — The Subdivision and Housing Developers Association (SHDA) is bringing together key players in the country’s housing sector for the 4th SHDA Golf Cup, set on March 26, 2026 at the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club in Mandaluyong City, where developers, investors, financial institutions, and industry partners will connect through a day of sportsmanship and collaboration.

Entering its fourth year, the SHDA Golf Cup has evolved into more than a tournament. It has become an annual gathering where leaders from across the housing ecosystem come together to exchange insights on emerging industry developments and strengthen relationships that support the housing sector’s continued growth.

Anchored on the theme “Driving Developments Forward,” the event reflects how the strategy, focus, and discipline required on the golf course mirror the planning and long-term vision behind successful housing developments. It also underscores innovation and effective collaboration in advancing housing opportunities for Filipino families.

“Just as players approach the course with focus and foresight, real estate stakeholders advance projects through strategic planning and adaptability,” said SHDA Chairman Engr. Francis Richmond Villegas. “The SHDA Golf Cup goes beyond competition, serving as a symbol of progress and shared purpose to lead the industry forward.”

Scoring System and Competitive Edge

This year, the tournament will continue with a modified Double Peoria scoring system, evaluating performance across a broader set of holes to create a more balanced and competitive experience for golfers of all skill levels.

Participants will compete for a range of awards and prizes that recognize both overall performance and exceptional skills on the course. Special awards will be given to the Lowest Net Overall Champion, Lowest Gross Champions, First Runners-Up, and Second Runners-Up for Classes A, B, and C. 

Adding to the excitement, fun hole challenges will also take place, such as Hole-in-One, Nearest to the Pin, Longest Drive, Most Accurate Drive, and Longest Putt, providing variety throughout the event.

Moreover, SHDA National President Mr. Kerwin Padua noted that the format continues to make the tournament accessible for participants across different playing levels.

“With the scoring system and awards, we continue to make the Golf Cup engaging and fair for all participants. It’s a chance to enjoy the game while bringing together people who shape the housing sector in a relaxed and collaborative setting.”

“We look forward to seeing participants from across the industry come together and enjoy the camaraderie that the tournament always brings,” Padua added.
