2021 Golf Tournament

8th Annual
Fancy Pants Golf Tournament

Friday, August 20th 2021 | Theodore Wirth Golf Course | Minneapolis, MN

1:00 PM Shotgun Start | Fanciest Pants Encouraged

It is with great excitement that we invite you to participate in our 8th Annual Golf Tournament. If Caddyshack is your favorite movie, you will be in your glory at our Fancy Pants Tourney.

Fancy Pants is our theme! The idea is to wear your absolute LOUDEST, SILLIEST golf attire or team theme, with all funds raised going towards providing grants to MN Schools and partnering non-profits for their mental health initiatives- it's FORE the kids!!

Don't let COVID-19 get you down! Safety is at our FORE-front! In these ever-changing times, Theodore Wirth Golf Course in collaboration with Msp Parks & Rec and PrairieCare Fund have put plans in place to remain compliant with state guidelines.

Current guidelines are as follows and will remain updated as released:

2 golfers per cart or the possibility of a Plexiglass barrier (single riders now discouraged)
Grab n' go on course and pre/post game meals
Outdoor social hour with live entertainment
Online registration and check-in
Mobile bidding and donations

Updates to Tournament - Courtesy Play
This is not an official tournament, we will be avoiding delay of game as much as possible this year, but still offering all the FUN components that you LOVE!!

It will be considered bad form to take more than 10 strokes on a par four hole and more than 8 on a par three because it holds up the groups behind you. No-one wants a visit from the marshal.
On par four holes, if you haven't reached the green by your eighth stroke, then pick up your ball and drop it onto the green. Take no more than four putts.
On par three holes, pick your ball up if you haven't reached the green in six strokes. Drop it on the green and putt out.
Golfers who normally break 100 or 95 should play out all holes
This will be a crowded course where some of the par-fours are no longer than 325 yards, please try and limit yourself to 8 or 9 strokes.

Most importantly, remember, this is a FUN, social game!! Practicing your stroke should happen at the driving range. It's okay to have a better team play through. No-one expects you to break 100, no-one expects you to finish if you don't want to, but we do expect you to HAVE FUN!!

Besides that, we are having a Fancy Pants contest, so there is something in it for the Chevy Chase in all of you!
REGISTRATION OPENS SOON!!
