BC Golf Names 2018 PNGA Cup Team As Competition Returns To Seattle Golf Club

The 2018 PNGA Cup is being held this year from May 2-4, 2018 at the Seattle Golf Club in Shoreline, WA.

This Ryder-Cup style championship features some of the most notable amateur golfers in the Pacific Northwest region with 12-member teams representing the regional golf associations that makeup the Pacific Northwest Golf Association, which includes British Columbia Golf, Idaho Golf Association, Oregon Golf Association, and Washington State Golf Association.

Teams play four-ball, foursome and singles matches to select a champion.

Each team has eight men and four women with the men’s contingent comprised of four mid-amateurs (25 years of age or older), two men at 40 years or older, and two senior men of 55 years or older.

The women’s delegation includes two mid-amateurs and two women 50 years of age or older. With both Men’s and Women’s scores used to determine the team result, it is the only known event of its kind in the country.

The defending champions are from the Idaho Golf Association who took the title in 2017 on their home turf at the Timberstone Golf Course in Caldwell, Idaho. British Columbia Golf teams have won the title on 3 occasions with the most recent victory coming in 2014 at the Home Course in Washington State, the second of back-to-back wins for B.C.
