Charity Golf Tournaments and Golf Tournament Planning

TheTPC River Highlands event costs $500 to enter per two-person team ($250 pp). This includes the golf, cart, lunch and tournament gifts. Participants will be competing for the chance to qualify for the Grand Finale which will be hosted by Ernie Els in Las Vegas on 23/24 October. Grand Finale prizes include luxury trips to South Africa, South America and England courtesy of Mantis and sets of Callaway golf clubs complete with bag and customized fitting.
There are three ways for a team competing in a Super Regional event to make it the final – be the low net winner, the highest fundraiser or raise $10,000 more and automatically qualify. Once teams sign up they are given a dedicated team webpage to personalize and send out to friends, co-workers etc…to ask them to sponsor their team. Essentially teams start competing the minute they sign up! Whilst fundraising is encouraged it is not a prerequisite of taking part. As a fun incentive, teams raising $2,500 or more will be automatically entered into the Fundraisers’ Prize Draw for a chance to win a 7-day ultimate IRISH LINKS golf tour to Ireland.

Proceeds from the Golf Challenge will go towards creating the Els Center of Excellence that will reach out to help children on the autism spectrum across the U.S and internationally.

Fairchild Wheeler GC in Fairfield CT (Black Course)

9:00am Shotgun Start

This is a team event where each foursome represents a different MLB team. You’ll compete in your respective division and you’ll vie for a wild card award, division title or the overall championship! We’ve brought the ballpark to the golf course, complete with peanuts, popcorn, pretzels, beer plus a traditional ball park tailgate awards lunch!

You’ll be playing in a unique format that both skilled and not-so-skilled golfers can compete and enjoy equally. It’s called “1-2-3 yer out”. Everyone plays and scores on their own ball but not every score counts towards the TEAM score. Each team counts the ONE best net score on all par 5′s, the TWO best net scores on every par 4 and the THREE best net scores on every par 3. A portable leaderboard will circle the course to keep you aprised of your standing! Plus win a great prize on the spot if your drive clears our fences in our signature “Hole ‘n Run” contest!

This event benefits the Unitarian Churh in Westport in their quest to purchase new carpeting for the church. $50 of each tournament fee is tax deductible and 100% of any on-line sponsorship.
