About M&G Minigolf
M&G Minigolf is a manufacturer of sporting goods for the sport of minigolf based in Osnabrück. The company produces minigolf balls in a wide range of materials, paints and surfaces – from standard balls for facility operators to tournament and special balls. In addition, minigolf clubs and putters are offered, developed in collaboration with clubmaker Wolfgang Maier and assembled to customer specification with various shafts, grips and club rubbers. The portfolio also includes ball bags and storage systems, course supplies such as admission tickets and score pads, as well as services for the construction and renovation of minigolf, blacklight and adventure golf facilities. The company continues the tradition of ball production begun in 1969 by Leo Moik and Konrad Ganneshofer and is today led by Ingo Hoogen. For better roundness, the balls are specially tumbled.
