The Vancouver Open Golf Tournament hosted by Vancouver Parks Golf and sponsored by Johnston Meier Insurance Agencies brings a great field of Men and Women golfers to Fraserview, McCleery and Langara.

Professional competitors come from the Vancouver Golf Tour, PGA of Canada, Mackenzie Tour Canada and other Mini-Tours. The flighted event is also open to amateurs with a registered handicap of 18 or less.

PLAY WITH A PRO

The weekend kicks off with the Maui Jim Charity Pro-Am, presented by Travis Mathew Apparel on Wednesday, August 28th. The Pro-Am is played at Fraserview with a 1pm shotgun start. The proceeds will benefit the First Tee program of Greater Vancouver.

Whether you’re a scratch golfer or a first-time player we welcome all golfing abilities to play in the Pro-Am. This tournament is all about having fun on and off the course and bragging rights to see who wins the PRO-AM Team Title. From the practice range to the practice green, spend your day with one of Canada’s rising young stars as they prepare to play in the Vancouver Open Championship and work their way towards the PGA TOUR.

All team entries include a round of golf with power cart and deluxe buffet dinner with some of Canada’s top professionals.
