HighCut x Cancer Society: The Longest Day Golf Challenge

Some partnerships come together naturally. Others come from shared values, shared experiences, and a shared desire to make a real difference. Our collaboration with the Cancer Society and The Longest Day Golf Challenge is firmly the latter, and it’s one that means a huge amount to both of us here at HighCut.

The Longest Day is more than just a golf challenge. It’s about pushing yourself across 72 holes in one day, testing limits, leaning on your mates, and doing it all for something far bigger than the game we love. Every round played, every dollar raised, and every supporter who gets behind it is helping fund life-saving cancer research and support services for Kiwi families who need it most.

Like so many people across Aotearoa, both Dan and I have seen first-hand how deeply cancer impacts lives. Friends, family, teammates, workmates, it touches everyone in some way. That’s why this partnership isn’t just a logo on a poster for us. It’s personal. It’s purposeful. And it’s something we’re incredibly proud to stand behind.

This year, HighCut is supporting the challenge by getting behind grassroots clubs across New Zealand with prizes, promotion, and visibility, because that’s where the heart of the game lives. We’re also putting together our own HighCut team for The Longest Day, and we want it to be as inclusive and open as possible. If you’re keen to get involved, you don’t need to be a scratch golfer, just someone who’s up for the challenge and ready to play for a great cause.

At its core, HighCut has always been about community, connection, and growing the game from the ground up. Partnering with the Cancer Society through The Longest Day feels like a natural extension of that mission,  using golf as a tool for good, and standing alongside an organisation that does incredible work every single day.

To everyone who has already signed up, donated, shared the message, or simply supported from the sidelines, thank you. Your backing genuinely makes a difference.

We’re proud to be part of this. We’re proud to play for something bigger. And we’re proud to stand with the Cancer Society.

Let’s keep driving this forward, together.
