Charity Golf Tournaments Don’t Need to Cancel Their Fundraisers: TDJ Golf Virtual Pro Ams Offer a New Solution
With our new way of life impacting charity golf tournaments, it was thought cancelling was the only option; TDJ Golf offers a new one. Charities can now host a Virtual Pro-Am tournament to raise funds for their organizations. Golfers can play at their favorite course, add their scores to a team of PGA Tour™ pros, win great prizes and still be connected to the group!
This new solution reduces the overhead cost of hosting the tournament in-person, increases the number of golfers who can play, offers an extra layer of fun and provides a risk-free way to drive funds to the charity.
“We saw the secondary impacts that the pandemic was having on charities who raise a significant amount of their funds through their golf outings and knew we had the technology to help and do our part”, says Tony Laudato, CEO, TDJ Golf. “TDJ Golf contests allow charities to continue to engage their golfers and sponsors. In a Virtual Pro Am, golfers draft a team of PGA Tour™ pros, play golf on their favorite golf course, record their score in the TDJ Golf app, and watch their team battle it out on our Live Leaderboards”.
With social distancing, restrictions at golf facilities, and limits on the number of people at a gathering, TDJ Golf Virtual Pro Ams are a low effort, no up-front cost way to hold a fundraiser while following appropriate health safety procedures.
“We are thrilled about the feedback we are receiving from organizations who are looking for solutions in this difficult time,” says Tony Laudato. “We are currently working with local charities looking to do a virtual event in 2020 and large, national foundations who are looking to add Virtual Pro Ams as a completely new, digital fundraiser for the future.”
Organizations who are interested in hosting a Virtual Pro Am, should contact TDJ Golf through their website at http://www.tdjgolf.com/.
