With 2017 drawing to a conclusion, we wanted to do what we hope is now an annual tradition (after 2 years) and look back on the year in articles. 2017 was major year for us in that we secured a new sponsor in Chromax and brought on board several new bloggers and article writers to help expand our reach. We'll talk more in 2018 about how you can help if you are interested and look to introduce a few more individuals into the Minigolfnews family. The 2017 landscape of articles covered items such as major world champion ships, interviews with tournament winners, looking at results of various international leagues, spotting how minigolf hits us in all aspects of our lives and a variety of blogs giving insight into the "daily" life of a serious putter.
To kick off our recap of 2017, we'll again start by showcasing some of the smaller articles we've had on the site over the year. There's some really great content in these and we want to make sure they get around as much as possible, so if you're sitting around stuffed on holiday food take a spin through these.
