100 Hole Golf Marathon!

On Monday, June 2nd at Tuscawilla Country Club, Young Life will be hosting our 1st Annual 100 Hole Golf MARATHON!!!

Players sign up to play 100-Holes of golf and ask their friends, family, co-workers, church, etc to sponsor them per hole!

Each golfer sets a personal fund-raising goal ($500 minimum) to support Young Life in Seminole County & East Orlando. 

Our goal is for 30 Golfers to raise over $25,000!  Please help us make this event a success by signing up and asking a friend to sign up to play with you.

Then send us your friends and family's addresses using The Player Sponsor Address List and we will send out sponsorship letters for you!

Teams and Incentives

To add a little healthy competition to this event, teams of golfers will play for specific schools.  As golfers sign up to play, they can pick the "team" they are playing for.
 
The winning team will receive a trophy, for bragging rights, and you and the kids involved with Young Life at that school will win a fun pool party (complete with food, fun and celebration!)
 
This year the "teams" will be: 
 
The East Orlando Team (University & Timber Creek High Schools)
The Lake Howell Team (Lake Howell High School)
The Oviedo Team (Hagerty & Oviedo High Schools)
The Winter Springs Team (Winter Springs High School)
 
*Let us know if you would like to add another team!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be a good golfer?
No.  Just passionate about golf and kids!  We will maintain a steady pace, but any skill level will be able to keep up...pros and hackers alike!
 
How in the world could I play 100 Holes of golf in one day?
We've got a plan for you!  At each tee box you play 2 balls (which will count as 2 holes).  On each par 3, you play 4 balls.  So, by the end of one round, you will have completed 44 holes.  After a little over 2 rounds, you're done.  No sweat!
 
How am I going to raise the money?
To raise $1,000, you only need 10 people to sponsor you $1 per hole, or 20 people to sponsor you $.50 per hole.  Once you sign up to golf, we will give you sample letters, emails and phone conversations to help you invite your friends to be on "your team" by supporting you!
 
What if I am not a golfer, how can I help?
If you do not play golf, you can be a "pledge partner" and help to raise money for a golfer or team.  Instead of sponsoring you, people you ask will sponsor the golfer or team you are supporting.
