Visit getserious.ca Play Golf to Conquer Cancer next July The Oakville Golf Club will join more than 200 golf courses across Canada in what is being called the world's largest golf fundraising event -- Golf to Conquer Cancer. The nationwide event, presented by Harry Rosen, will take place next year -- on Thursday, July 25, 2013. The single-day fundraiser is intended to unite thousands of Canadian golfers of all skill levels, as well as the golf industry and other corporate sponsors, in an effort to conquer cancer. All that is needed to participate are four golf clubs and a commitment to raise funds for cancer research. "One of the best things about Golf to Conquer Cancer is the format: The 4-Club Challenge," said Ian Leggatt, former PGA Tour champion, in a release announcing the event. "It's great for all skill levels, but more importantly, it's designed to be played in four hours, all while raising funds to conquer cancer." Teams of four players each choose only four clubs and work as a team within their foursome to determine their strategy for the day and each hole. Interested golfers can register as a foursome or as an individual at www.golftoconquercancer.ca. Individuals will be grouped into foursomes later. Participants choose the area where they want to play and then select a participating golf course. In Ontario, funds raised will benefit the Campbell Family Cancer Research Institute at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. Outside Ontario, all net funds will be granted to researchers working in the province or region where the funds are raised. At the request of the Campbell Family Cancer Research Institute, the Canada-wide Terry Fox Research Institute's eminent researchers will determine where to allocate net funds in each province or region where they are raised. "Today, researchers are embarking on a new era of discovery with personalized cancer medicine," said Dr. Benjamin Neel, director of the Campbell Family Cancer Research Institute. "Events like Golf to Conquer Cancer have a major impact on the resources needed to conquer cancer."
