Golf Programs Australia Incorporated is excited to announce the date for this year's Holey Moley Charity Pro-Am Tour Scramble - Thursday 22nd October 2026.

As event coordinator I'm encouraging those wishing to enter their team of 3 Amateurs before the spots fill.

Last year's event saw the 27 teams fill fast and well before the final registration date which will be two weeks prior to the tournament.

All sponsor teams will be scheduled into the 2 pm & 11 am shotgun starts which leaves non sponsor teams to fill the remaining 7:30 & 11 am tee times.

Highlight of this years tournament will again include a Hole In One cash prize of $20,000 for the first player - Professional or Amateur to achieve the million to one shot on the 160 metre 1st Hole at Glenview Golf Course.

PGA of Australia Professionals will be competing for a modest prize purse and Amateur players will get to experience playing with a pro as part of their Tour Scramble Team and great prizes up for grabs.

The event of course is a great opportunity to raise funds for a local award winning charity that uses the activity of golf to Drive Inclusion and Break Isolation for individuals living with an intellectual disability.

Last year's offering was the charity's inaugural pro-am fundraiser and billed as a world first tournament delivered by golfers living with an intellectual disability who played a key role in managing the event from start to finish.

The charity expects this years tournament to outshine the inaugural event which was an enormous success.

Much needed funds benefiting the organisation's cohort of golfers living with an intellectual disability were raised enabling opportunities in training and work placement to develop and continue into the future.
