2024 Texas First Tee Hickory Championship team from Dallas, Texas 

(Jacob LeWallen, Brooks Freitas, David Pyle, JohnTijerina) 

  

 

DEFENDING CHAMPIONS.  First Tee of Dallas, with a score of two under par 138. 

​

FORMAT.  Each Texas First Tee chapter may enter four players.  From those four players, the chapter will identify two two-person teams who will play in a two-person scramble.  A mix of male and female players is encouraged.  The combined gross score of a Chapter's two two-person teams will be the team's tournament score.  If Austin's Joe and Jane score 70 and Austin's Bill and Bob score a 72, Austin's score is a 142.  Each two-person team will play with a two-person team from another chapter. 

 

VENUE:  Squaw Valley Golf Club, Glen Rose, Texas.  See www.squawvalleygc.com.    

​

ENTRY FEE:  $400.00 per team due with entry by March 1, 2025.  March 1, 2025 is a firm deadline.  Use the Team Registration button on this page to Pay online via PayPal or Debit/Credit Card.  Fee includes golf, range balls, cookout, awards and gratuities. 

 

AWARDS:  Gold, Silver and Bronze medals (from world-renowned Alex. Kirkwood & Sons, Edinburgh, Scotland). A hickory-shaft golf club will be awarded to all players on the first three teams. The Team Champions will have custody of The Texas Cup until the 2026 tournament. All players receive a golf book. 

​

AWARDS PRESENTATION:  Following play, we will gather for a cookout and awards presentation at Hammond's BBQ 1106 NE Big Bend Trail, Glen Rose, Tx.  Other persons associated with a Chapter's team are invited to attend the cookout at $20.00 per person.  Cookout payment for these additional persons can be made at the Squaw Valley Club House on Sunday March 30.

 

EQUIPMENT:  All players will use hickory-shaft golf clubs (originals or reproductions). Mr. William Reed of Des Moines, Iowa will generously provide loaner sets.  A team’s coach has responsibility for working with Mr. Reed to ensure appropriate distribution and collection of clubs.  Soft golf balls are highly recommended when playing with hickory shaft golf clubs.

​

ATTIRE:  Traditional vintage attire (knickers, flat golf caps) is recommended but not required.  A couple of recommendations for period attire:  Knicker Dog or Kings Cross Knickers.
