Event Q&A

How do I register for the Leave No Veteran Behind 2nd Annual Golf Tournament?

Can I register a team to play?

Yes, absolutely. There is an option under “Buy Tickets” on the registration site which reads: 4-Person Team (Veteran or Non-Veteran). Click on it and register team name.

What type of format will be used for tournament play?

There will be two formats for this year’s tournament:

• Four person scramble - Create teams of four players and count one score on each hole for the entire team. Each player takes a shot from the tee, then the team decides which tee shot was best, and all players hit their second shot from that spot. The team continues to hit that way until someone sinks a putt. The same format continues on each subsequent hole.

• Shotgun start - All groups of players tee off simultaneously from different holes.
