Don’t despair…help is hair! Or here…but that doesn’t rhyme :). So, what do you need to make your next charity golf tournament your most successful ever? Perhaps
a super cool player gift that none of your golfers have ever received before…at any event! With your–or a sponsor’s–logo, of course. How about a slew of fun contests to keep everyone incredibly entertained…while raising a whole lot more money? Maybe a $5000 Putting Contest, or $1000 Par 3 Challenge, or $100K Shoot-out…or even one shot for $1,000,000! No problem. What about some amazing raffle prizes and awesome items for your auction? Got you covered. Or some fun scratchcards that include cash prizes…that WE payout? Consider it done. And sponsors need sponsor signs, right? We got those too. Getting the picture? Whatever you need…we can help! Tournament Pros will be entering it’s 27th year in 2020 helping organizations just like yours raise more money and have more fun. It’s what we do!

So much to do…so little time to do it. Or not! Why not start planning NOW even if your event is next year? The “scramble” is your format…not what you want to be doing weeks before the tournament!! (Did you see what we did there? 🙂 ) Imagine sitting in your office–or meeting with the committee–a week prior to the golf outing…with nothing to do! Because it’s already been taken care of. Heck, you might even be able to take a few days off before the event. More importantly, planning ahead–way ahead–gives you plenty of time to handle all those little “things” that will inevitably come up; “stuff” happens! But with time on your side, they’re all easily remedied…calmly, coolly, collectively. Which means virtually all your decisions will be the right ones…because you had the time to discuss them WITHOUT being “under the gun”. Our experience (27 years!) has been that when folks DON”T have the luxury of time, that’s when mistakes are made and decisions are regretted. All avoidable with an early start. So what are you waiting for?!?

If you didn’t have a full field of 144 golfers, there’s your first goal for next year’s event.
But first things first..were the golfers you DID have happy with their experience this year? Why not send out a questionnaire and ask them!!
Did they like…
-the player gift they received at registration?
-the format of the event? (i.e scramble, best ball, etc)
-the golf course?
-the contests/prizes?
-the raffle prizes?
-the auction items?
-the food?
-the time it took to play?
-the awards dinner?
