Paradise Island Adventure Golf in Manchester

Playing the Paradise Island Adventure Golf courses at the Trafford Centre in Manchester.

Since November last year Emily and I have been regularly playing the Paradise Island Adventure Golf courses at the Trafford Centre in Manchester.

Back in April 2009 the Tiki Hut Trail and Temple Ruins Adventure courses at PIAG Manchester became the 85th and 86th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now visited 859 courses and since we moved north in 2016, Paradise Island Adventure Golf's Trafford Centre location is our local course.

In our nine-event challenge contest running from November to January we played a total of eleven rounds, with six games on the Temple Ruins course and five on the Tiki Hut Trail.

Emily teed-off the series on the 14th November 2018 with a win on the Temple Ruins course with a 37 to 39 result. I followed this up with a 33 to 39 win on the Tiki Hut Trail. We tied our round on the Temple Ruins on the 27th November.

On the 6th December I shot a 32 to Emily's 42 on the Tiki Hut Trail, while Emily beat me 34 to 36 on the Temple Ruins on the 18th December.

In our first rounds of the New Year I won 33 to 36 on the Temple Ruins and 36 to 37 on the Tiki Hut Trail on the 2nd January.

On the 16th January I hit a 32 to Emily's 35 on the Temple Ruins and then followed up with a 35 to 37 victory on the Tiki Hut Trail on the 23rd January.

Our final rounds saw us shoot a 33 and a 36 on the Tiki Hut Trail and a 34 and a 37 on the Temple Ruins.

Overall I scored a total of 205 on the Temple Ruins, with Emily recording a total of 214. On the Tiki Hut Trail I shot 169 to Emily's 191.
