Welcome to the RHI 2025!

Gentlemen, once again it's nearly time to descend on the hallowed turf of Vilamoura for a few days of beers, sunshine, beers, club sandwiches, beers, banter, beers, G&T's and a little bit of golf. Some good, some brilliant, some awful. Applies to both the golf and the banter.

Here you'll find EVERYTHING you need for the golf trip, so no need to keep asking! Wahey!

The Story Of The RHI

In 2004, a crack team of professionals were sent on secondment to a major bank for projects they did not volunteer for. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security bollocking chair to the restructuring underground. Today, still wanted by the bank, they survive as secondees of fortune on golf courses around Europe. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them… maybe you can hire…

The Secondees

"I can't say enough about the outstanding time I have on this golf trip. Every year I honestly cannot find a single thing to moan about. 

M. Hughes - Manchester

"I love going on golf trips with good golfers. This one is ok too."

T. Bateson - Nottingham

"I used to be in a boy band and headlined a massive summer fete. 

T. Symmons - Black Country Mafia

Vilamoura Marina
