VGT Fundraising Pro-Am

In support of

the ROB MILNE LEGACY FUND

Wednesday, Sept.21st      

12PM shotgun Start

   Westwood Plateau Golf & Country Club

 

 

Whether you’re a scratch golfer or a first-time player we welcome all golfing abilities. This tournament is all about assisting our young talent who are aspiring to bigger things with their golf careers, while at the same time recognizing a young man who once aspired to play Championship Golf in his youth.  

 

Proceeds from this year’s event will directly benefit a number of local, talented and aspiring Professional and Elite Amateur golfers who need our support to fend off the heavy costs of training, travelling and entry fee costs as they journey out beyond the VGT. 

Thanks to your participation, and the kind contributions from a number of our sponsors, including a significant contribution from our Title Sponsor KELLAND VENTURES, the proceeds from this event will enable VGT to continue to raise moneys to grow the ROB MILNE LEGACY FUND.

 

In 2021, thanks to all who participated in this event and our Van Open Charity Pro-am, over $25,000 was raised for the ROB MILNE LEGACY FUND, allowing VGT to support over a dozen players with their travel and entry fee costs in 2022.  We are hoping to top that fundraising goal in 2022 so we can support as many young male and female athletes with their journey to be the best golfer they can be.

 

I hope you can join us up at the beautiful Westwood Plateau Golf & Country Club on September 21st where you can spend a day with one of Canada’s rising young stars as they continue their journey beyond the VGT towards a Major Worldwide Tour!

 

All team entries include a premium welcome gift, a round of golf with power cart, 18-holes and dinner with one of Canada’s rising golf stars!

 

 Thanks for making a huge difference for our players!!

 

Sincere Regards,

 

 

 

 

Fraser Mulholland, Commissioner VGT

In its 16th year in 2022, the Vancouver Golf Tour (VGT) has been giving BC’s local professional and amateur golfers the opportunity to develop their tournament skills in a PGA Tour-like environment without the added costs of travelling.  We are extremely proud to have launched dozens of our players onto PGA TOUR Canada & Korn Ferry Tour, and FIVE of our alumni out onto the PGA Tour since inception.  And most recently we were extremely proud to watch our graduate Nick Taylor go on to win his 2nd career PGA Tour event at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, taking down Phil Mickelson in style!

 

VGT continues to provide junior, amateur and professional golfers the opportunity to learn how to win locally and to build their confidence to play at the highest level possible, whether it be claiming their Amateur Division Title or moving on to play on Worldwide Major Tours. The mission statement of VGT since day one is ‘Preparing Tomorrow’s Champions’ to compete (and win) on ANY TOUR!  Thanks for your support of our mission!

 

Our 2ND Annual VGT Fundraising Pro-Am is going to directly benefit our young players thanks to your support of this event and the support of many of our loyal sponsors and partners. 

 

Please join me and our team for a great day of golf with an up-and-coming young Pro or Amateur, some wonderful food, exciting auctions and prizes! Let's show our support for our Canadian and local Professional and Amateur golfers and their well being through this great game of golf!

 

Thank-you in advance for your support of our event and our mission.  I look forward to seeing you at the beautiful Westwood Plateau Golf & Country Club on September 21st!!
