FOR AMATEURS: Myrtle Point Golf Club will be hosting a qualifier for the RBC PGA Scramble, which is a national competition for teams of four golfers with up-to-date Golf Canada handicaps.

On July 24, qathet region golfers will have the opportunity to participate in a local qualifier for the RBC PGA Scramble. The competition will be hosted at Myrtle Point Golf Club.

According to a media release, the RBC PGA Scramble is a national series of events, with the winners of each local qualifier being invited to participate in one of 12 regional finals later this summer. From there, each regional final winner will be awarded the chance to participate and win a national championship at the Cabot Links Golf Course in Nova Scotia in the fall.

The competition is open to teams of four eligible amateur golfers who all have an up-to-date Golf Canada handicap, and are 19 years of age and older.

In 2021, the RBC PGA Scramble saw more than 10,000 golfers participate in more than 150 local qualifiers across the country. There will also be a spot in each regional final reserved for an all-female team.

To register or see a full list of local qualifiers in the area, golfers can go to rbcpgascramble.com/local-qualifiers. Registration for the Myrtle Point event closes on July 17, one week prior to the qualifier.

RBC Avion card holders will receive 50 per cent off the registration fees for their team, plus additional perks throughout each qualifying stage.
