The NIRSA Foundation Golf Tournament is entering its 18th year as a premier NIRSA Annual Conference event! The beautiful Westchase Golf Club was selected to host the 2012 event and will ensure that every participant walks away a winner from this year's tournament. Since 1994, tournament proceeds benefiting the NIRSA Foundation have reached over $78,000, making this one of the NIRSA Foundation's most successful and highly anticipated events!
The main goals for the tournament are for participants to have fun, meet new people, and support the NIRSA Foundation. The NIRSA Foundation facilitates educational programs and workshops, research, scholarships, publications, and professional development! The tournament is a great way to interact with NIRSA professionals, students, sponsors, and exhibitors, all while enjoying a terrific day of golf.
The tournament is held using four-person scramble format. Each golfer will receive a golf cart, driving range balls, lunch, prizes, and awards. Players can register individually or in teams. Scoring will be based on a modified team scramble handicap. Tournament play begins at 8:00am on Tuesday, March 27th and transportation will be provided.
Space for this event is limited, so sign up today. For more information about the NIRSA Foundation Golf Tournament, contact NIRSA Foundation Board member Dave Koch.
