Montgomery, AL: The LEO Golf Academy and the Black College Golf Coaches Association (BCGCA), in collaboration with the City of Montgomery and the Montgomery Department of Parks and Recreation, proudly announce the upcoming Legacy Golf Championship. This premier golf tournament, set to take place from June 14th to 19th, 2024, at the esteemed Lagoon Park Golf Course, promises to be a transformative event that marries sport with the pursuit of legacy and empowerment.
The Legacy Golf Championship is a unique spectacle that brings together a diverse assembly of junior and collegiate golfers from across the nation. The event will be divided into male and female divisions, each boasting 25 top-tier athletes. In total, 100 golfers will compete, showcasing their exceptional skills and fervor for the game. The tournament’s layout spans five days and consists of a captivating journey from qualifying rounds to a thrilling 54-hole stroke play golf championship.
Nestled within the enchanting confines of the Lagoon Park Golf Course, a Golf Digest-acclaimed Top 100 course in Alabama, players will navigate tree-lined fairways while basking in the tranquil ambiance. However, the Legacy Golf Championship transcends mere competition. It serves as a platform for junior golfers to unveil their talents and forge connections with college coaches present at the event. Collegiate players, on the other hand, can earn valuable World Amateur Golf Rankings.
One of the hallmarks of the Legacy Golf Championship is the integration of enriching activities into the daily schedule. These activities offer players and their families the opportunity to delve into Montgomery’s rich history, particularly its role as the “Birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement.” Beyond golf, this event encapsulates education, unity, and legacy-building.
