The list of summer golf tournaments continues to grow.
The following list of Cree-related golf tournaments, taking place across Quebec in the coming weeks and months, builds on the information already published.
Of particular note is the addition of several key tourneys to the schedule, including the Cree Nation Achievement Awards Foundation golf tournament happening on Friday August 31 at Mont-Tremblant. This year, the tourney will take place on Tremblant’s two famous courses, Le Diable and Le Geant.
The Cree Nation Open Golf Championship will take place in Chibougamou on Saturday July 14, followed by the Mistissini’s 9th Annual Stanley Longchap Golf Classic, also happening in Chibougamou on Thursday July 19.
The season will wrap up on the Saturday after Labour Day, September 8, with Waskaganish’s Albert W. Diamond Golf Classic, taking place at the Belvedère Golf Club in Val-d’Or.
This list is sure to grow as more tournaments are announced. If we haven’t listed your tournament, it is because we haven’t got the details yet. Please let us know and we will add your tournament to the list ASAP.
Enjoy the golf season, and remember to swing easy!
