48th CAROLINAS FATHER-SON AND 17TH PARENT-CHILD CHAMPIONSHIPS - JULY 25, 2014
WEST END, NC (7/22/14) - The 48th Carolinas Father-Son and the 17th Carolinas Parent-Child Championships will take place on Friday, July 25 at five Pinehurst, NC area courses. A popularly attended event, the Father-Son and Parent-Child championships have become a tradition for many teams. The Father-Son Championship has many divisions extending from 13 & Under, Super Senior, Open (Pro-Am), and Amateur to allow for play in almost every age and skill group.
The championships are contested at 18 holes of modified alternate shot. Each team plays alternate shot except that both team members hit from each tee and then select the ball to be played for the remainder of the hole (modified alternate shot). A team must complete the hole with the ball selected.
