This mission will conclude with a two-day tournament, sponsored by El Al Airlines, that will decide the JNF Tour Champion.
The Del Mar tournament is an 18-hole shotgun start. The registration includes practice balls, cart, 18 holes of golf, a pre-tournament continental breakfast, lunch, and post-tournament event with a raffle, prizes, and an awards dinner. Registration starts at 10:30 a.m., and tee time is at noon. The awards dinner begins at 5 p.m.
“This is a rare and unique opportunity to play at the Del Mar Country Club,” said Tournament Co-Chairman Dr. Charles Fleischer. “It is a private and beautiful course nestled in the hills of Rancho Santa Fe that is not typically open to the public. It is a challenging but playable course for all levels and it also happens to be the home course of golfer Phil Mickelson.”
Tournament sponsorships are available at multiple levels and include tournament playing spots, providing businesses of all sizes the opportunity to participate in this worthwhile community event supporting JNF’s projects in Israel.
