Ryder Cup’s Magic Touch

Islandbridge client, MagicTouch Partners, play a vital part in serving up Ryder Cup success.

Sergio, Darren and Lee weren’t the only ones displaying talent, poise and sureness of touch around the greens at the K Club during this weekend’s Ryder Cup. Mixing it with the best of them were hospitality students from DIT’s MagicTouch Partners programme whose performance at the event prompted Chris Prosperi, consultant to global catering group Compass (who hold hospitality contracts for other high-profile events including Wimbledon, Grand Prix & Cheltenham) to remark: “The Irish hospitality students are second to none – after just a couple of days training, they were moving into team leader positions and managing whole sections. We certainly hope to get them involved in more of our international events”.

And what’s our interest in all of this? In addition to basking in the reflected glory of Europe’s golfing prowess, we’re delighted to see our client, MagicTouch Partners, play a vital part in serving up this latest Ryder Cup success.
