The Urhea Olympic Charity Golf Tournament was held on Friday, June 12, at Tapiola Golf.

The Urhea Olympic Charity Golf event is organized jointly by the Helsinki Metropolitan Area Sports Academy and the Finnish Olympic Committee, and the proceeds go directly toward the training of young Finnish athletes. Fifteen teams participated in the competition, along with an equal number of athletes and coaches from the Finnish sports community, who served as team captains.

The Charity Golf event was held for the first time in 2021. For the fifth time, the event — and the support for youth sports — brought together companies, athletes, and coaches from the sports world.

The winning team at the Urhea Olympic Charity Golf 2026 was Simplified IT, with golfer Oona Kuronen serving as team captain. EY, led by captain Petteri Koponen, took second place in the competition, and third place went to Olympiakomitea 1, captained by golfer Iiris Ahti.

Thank you to everyone who participated!
