Congratulations to Arizona, the 2010 CAN Golf Champs!
This year's CAN golf tournament promises to be a fantastic event. Proceeds from this charity event will again benefit the general scholarship fund of the winning schools. The tournament set-up has changed this year to a "Post-Flight" system. Please see below for more details.
Sign up now, because in years past we reached capacity before the deadline and we expect to have a full field again this year.
General Tournament Information:
- Location: Courses at Andrews Air Force Base, Andrews AFB, MD
- Date/Time: May 8, 2010 – 2:00pm Shotgun Start
- Cost: $100/golfer
- Format: Captain’s choice scramble (Everyone’s tee shot must be used at least once)
- Prizes: 1st place for each tier determined after play, 3 total teams will win money towards their sponsoring school’s scholarship fund.
- 50% alumni rule from sponsoring school
- No co-ed requirement
- Tees: Men will hit from the Blue Tees. Ladies and Seniors will always hit from the forward tees.
- Fee includes: greens fee, cart fee, buffet dinner afterwards, non-alcoholic beverages, various donated items, a sleeve of balls with tees.
- Assorted raffles and contests (closest to pin, longest drive, etc).
Chapter Considerations/Application process:
- All schools in good standing in CAN may apply.
- March 10th begins open registration again on a first-come, first-served basis to fill the remaining spots.
- There is only room for 36 teams, but a waiting list will be maintained should a team decide not to participate or fail to pay by the deadline.
- All teams must have the full support of the alumni chapter Board and must submit the chapter president's information along with their application. The chapter president will be notified to verify the alumni status of the person submitting the application.
- Upon verification by chapter president, the payment website address will be emailed to the coach.
- April 21st will be the payment deadline.
- Application period will fully close on April 21st at 5:00 pm and waitlist will be cut off at that time.
-The Post Flight System: Once the field is set, we use the number of teams to determine what place finishes will be awarded money. For example, if we have 30 foursomes, the 1st, 11th, and 21st place teams will all be declared "winner" of their respective flights.
-Ties will be broken by comparing a group of pre-determined holes.
