Who Can Join VGT?
Any golf professional with or without affiliation, and amateurs and
juniors with handicaps from 0-10 can join Vancouver’s newest and most
competitive Developmental Golf Tour.
Why Join VGT?
The Vancouver Golf Tour will be the first developmental tour of its kind
in Canada. We have created a locally based tour for our young and
aspiring professionals, amateurs and juniors to compete against each
other for seriously needed competition in a PGA Tour run environment. We
have developed a professional cash and prize structure that will give
our young professionals an opportunity to make a living while they are
preparing to compete on either the PGA Tour or one of the top tours
around the world. The tour will give our young rising stars (juniors and
amateurs) a chance to compete head-to-head against the best
professionals in our province on a regular basis.
Each category of membership will compete for a Season-ending
Order-of-Merit Race, where our Champion Professional will be sent down
to PGA Tour School with his entry fee paid. Our Champion Amateur will
win a great Prize package and our Champion Juniors will win great
prizes and scholarships at the end of the year.
For the first time in Vancouver, Junior golfers will be invited into the
mix of our Top Professionals in various VGT events. By joining VGT, you
can assure yourself the best competition in our province while at the
same time gaining exemptions into some of the top golf tournaments our
city and province has to offer (Golden Ear’s Open, Chilliwack Open,
Ledgeview Open & the Vancouver Open).
VGT has three main objectives that we will strive at all times to
accomplish for our members:
-
The first is to increase the tournament prize money for the tour
through added corporate sponsorship.
-
The second main goal for the tour which will aid the first goal is
to create more awareness about the tour and its many great players
through the media to our golfing public. Our Vancouver golf fans
need to recognize our future stars if they are to support them in
their quest towards the PGA Tour. By creating this awareness, we
can not only recognize players for their tremendous skills, but
harness the required relationships with our corporate community so
the next wave of talented young golfers has the greatest chance of
fulfilling their dreams.
-
The third and likely most important goal of the tour is to set aside
fundraising dollars to help develop the future of our junior
golfers. Through the development of scholarship programs, we can
help our young players choose the school best suited for their
academic and golf goals in mind. And through the building of our
Junior Golf Academy for the tour, young kids of all ages and means
can learn the game of golf from our local professionals at a very
subsidized cost and in some cases at no charge.
VGT and Corporate Golf
Corporate golfers will automatically earn membership in VGT when they
sign up to compete in our Corporate Golf Team Challenge. Corporate
golfers will be paired up with one of our top VGT Professionals in a
four-man team competition that plays out over five events in the 2007
VGT Schedule (click here). A Corporate Team Champion will be crowned at
the end of the year. Sign-up now so your company can have bragging
rights over your competition and take home the VGT Corporate Cup! There
is no restriction on handicaps (0-36) and full handicaps will be taken
for amateurs in these Pro-am style events.
