PGA Scramble to hit the links at St. Eugene resort

It’s time to get your clubs shined as the RBC PGA Scramble is hitting the links at St. Eugene Golf Resort on July 13.

The tournament is open to teams of four, for golfers over 19 years old.

“On Sunday, July 13th, Kootenay area golfers will have the opportunity to participate as a team in a local qualifier of the RBC PGA Scramble,” said Cole Crawford, RBC PGA Scramble spokesperson.

“Now in its 10th year, the RBC PGA Scramble is the largest grassroots amateur golf program in Canada taking place at over 185 locations.”

Winners from each local qualifier will be invited to participate in a regional final later this summer for a chance at the national championships at Cabot Links Golf Course in Nova Scotia this fall.

There are also two guaranteed spots at the national finals for two all-women’s teams.

Registration for the St. Eugene qualifier closes on Thursday, July 3, with a maximum of 24 teams.

“The competition is open to teams of four eligible amateur golfers who all have an up-to-date Golf Canada handicap and are 19 years of age and older,” said Crawford.
