PGA Scramble local qualifier to take place at Crown Isle Resort and Golf Community next weekend

Comox Valley golfers will have a chance to team up for a local tournament next weekend. 

On May 3, the PGA Scramble local qualifier will take place at Crown Isle Resort and Golf Community, pitting 20 teams against each other. 

The team scramble tournament is now in its 11th year and is the largest grassroots amateur golf program in Canada, taking place at over 185 locations. 

The winners of each local qualifier are invited to participate in one of 13 regional finals later this summer. 

Winners of the regional tournaments are awarded a chance to participate in the National Championship at Cabot Links Golf Course in Nova Scotia in the fall. 

Two spots are guaranteed at the National Final for all-female teams. 

Registration for the Courtenay event closes on April 26 and is open to four eligible amateur golfers who all have an up-to-date Golf Canada handicap and are 19 years of age or older.
