Swing for a Cause

The Westmont Golf Classic, a charity golf tournament started in 2008 to raise funds for student scholarships, returns Friday, Oct. 4, at the Glen Annie Golf Club, 405 Glen Annie Road in Goleta. Registration is $200 per golfer and includes: 18 holes of golf with cart; tri-tip BBQ dinner, on-course games, raffles and awards. Additional dinner guests are $50 each. To register, or for more information, please visit westmont.edu/golf-classic. 

The classic, formerly known as Will’s Tourney, was held annually from 2008-2019 to celebrate the life of alumnus Will Wiersma (‘06), who died in a tragic car accident less than five months after graduating. 

Check-in begins at 10:30 am, and the tournament kicks off at noon with a shotgun start. The tri-tip and chicken barbecue dinner will be served at 4:30 pm at the Frog Bar and Grill at the course. 

Players are welcome to sign up individually or with a group. The course is in excellent condition, offering spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and testing players of all skill levels. All money raised will support students at Westmont, where students of all economic backgrounds can pursue a life-changing education.

There are several sponsorship options available for the tournament at westmont.edu/golf-classic/sponsorships.
