Volunteer for the BMW Tournament and help our House

Tournament Information

The BMW Charity Pro-Am, which will be played May 15-18, 2008, is the only tournament on the Nationwide Tour where amateurs and celebrities are grouped with Nationwide Tour professionals in a three-day better-ball competition. Amateurs, celebrities and pros rotate between each of the three courses on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with the 14 lowest scoring pro-amateur/pro-celebrity teams advancing to play Sunday's final round. Amateurs and celebrities compete for individual prizes as well as cash donations, which are awarded to The South Carolina Charities, Inc., charity of their choice.
